Collinwood Mansion

Carey Mansion

In 1974, Martin and Millicent Carey of New York, purchased the mansion. Being one of the largest of Newport's mansions, the Careys were faced with large costs for upkeep. The main house and gatehouse were leased to Salve Regina University, which renamed it the Carey Mansion. The former stables were also leased as a dormitory for Salve Regina, which renamed it Seaview. The mansion's Drawing Room, used by the university for performances and practice, was renamed Cecilia Hall, for the patron saint of music (Saint Cecilia). During the 1980s Seaview Terrace housed the American syndicate of The Americas Cup.

On August 31, 2009, Salve Regina University terminated the lease with the Carey family. The Carey's daughter, Denise Anne Carey, an architect from New York, currently lives there.

The Syfy network featured the mansion in the first season, second episode of its paranormal reality show Stranded on March 6, 2013.[4]

Seaview Terrace is privately owned and is not open for tours or tourist visits.
