On one of College Hill's most coveted streets, 260 Brown Street offers something increasingly rare: a condo that lives like a single-family home. Spanning 2,700 square feet across three levels, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath townhouse occupies one of just two units in an oversized side-by-side duplex, complete with a private driveway, direct entry, and an exclusive basement. It's a setup that feels less like condo life and more like your own. Freshly refinished hardwood floors run throughout, setting a warm tone from the moment you step inside. The main level is built for real living: 9-foot ceilings, a gas fireplace, a lavette, and living and dining rooms generous enough to accommodate a grand piano and a dinner party with ease. A gourmet kitchen completes the floor. The second level holds three bedrooms and two full baths, anchored by a primary suite with two closets, a luxurious en suite, and private access to a covered porch. The freshly painted third floor adds two more bedrooms and a full bath, a natural fit for guests, a home office, or a dedicated kids' retreat. Forced air heating and cooling keep every level comfortable through every season. Minutes from Whole Foods, Brown University, RISD, the Amtrak station, and downtown Providence, the location is as dialed-in as the home itself.
