Westport, Massachusetts, is located in Bristol County on the shores of Buzzards Bay and lies along the border between Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Westport was once the westernmost port of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and developed as a settlement along the banks of the Westport River. Today, Westport is home to a little over 15,000 residents, and is divided into several sections including Westport Point, Central Village, North and South Westport, and Westport Harbor, which is cut off from the rest of Massachusetts by the west branch of the Westport River and accessible only through Rhode Island. Homes in Westport vary depending on the locality, but many feature waterfront views and traditional, Nantucket-shingle design. Westport Point offers seaside charm with historic clapboard homes that feature authentic elements like hardwood floors and Delft tile fireplaces, while newer developments in areas to the north offer all the latest in housing amenities and styles.
