Built in 1852, this fabulous city cottage is a true gem, perfectly positioned in the desirable College Hill/Fox Point neighborhoods on the East Side of Providence. Blending warm period charm with smart, functional updates, the home features wide-plank hardwood floors, beautiful crown moldings, and fresh interior paint throughout. The main level offers engaging spaces for living and entertaining, including a living room, dining room, a powder room, and a cozy family room centered around a new gas fireplace. The kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and a farmhouse sink, while a new mudroom and main-level laundry add everyday convenience. Step outside to your private, fully fenced city garden, patio, and fresh landscaping for alfresco dining under the stars. Upstairs, hardwood floors extend through three bedrooms, including a primary suite with a completely renovated bath, alongside a sitting room with custom built-ins and an updated hall bath. Modern infrastructure upgrades include central AC, a whole-house water filtration system, and a replaced lead waterline. Steps from historic Benefit, Wickenden, and Thayer Streets, you are minutes from local dining, shopping, and the Providence Riverfront.
