Historic Colonial (c1800) on the outside. Open and airy with 9 foot high ceilings on the inside. Original pine floors throughout. Updated white kitchen, stainless chef's appliances, a built-in breakfast nook, and sliders out to a charming fenced city garden with a walled bluestone patio. Large renovated family bath. Insulated replacement windows. Updated mechanicals. Permit parking $125 per year. Fabulous location in a quaint Fox Point neighborhood. Walk to Brown, RISD, Wickenden Street, and downtown Providence! This very special home was first built to be the schoolhouse for the Third District, and then served as St Stephen's Chapel. In approximately 1850, the house was moved to its current location. It was used for years as a pharmacy before finally becoming a residential dwelling.
