    What's special

    Wood-burning fireplaceDouble-french doorsLarge dining roomGracious roomsGranite countersStudy or office nookTall ceilings
    This uniquely charming Colonial home in the historic Elmwood is ready for its next owner. Full of light and beautiful original finishes, the tall ceilings and gracious rooms welcome you inside from the airy front porch and garden. A wood-burning fireplace, glass built-in, and double-sided stairs flank one end of the living room, while double-french doors open onto the large dining room on the other side. A heated sunroom off the dining room is perfect for after-dinner cocktails and conversations. The kitchen has nice updates, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. Take the stairs up to the second level, where there’s a charming vintage pink bathroom, 4 spacious bedrooms, and a study or office nook tucked off the hallway. The 3rd floor is a large open space that could be an open-plan bedroom or studio. There’s space for additional storage in the eaves. The basement is clean and functional with tall ceilings and houses the laundry and great workshop or project space. The owner has updated the entire electrical system, and the water heater is only 1 yr old. Less than 10 minutes to downtown Providence or Roger Williams Park, this is an amazing area full of friendly neighbors, historic homes, and tree-lined streets. You’ll find local shops, the superb coffee at Saints Cafe and the Knights Memorial Library just a quick stroll away. TF Green Airport and the Amtrak Station are all 15 min away; this is a perfect spot for your New England Commute or remote work hours.
