Welcome to an uplifting residence in one of College Hill’s most sought-after locations. Just one block from Thayer Street, with its amazing shops, cafes, and restaurants, 265 Bowen offers a coveted East Side lifestyle. Set within a five-unit building with the timeless allure of 1900 Queen Anne/Late Victorian architecture, this charming one-level, one-bedroom condo is filled with character, light, and warmth. Inside, tall ceilings, oversized windows, hardwood floors, and original details create an inviting, airy feel throughout. A gracious entry welcomes you with period charm, highlighted by a glass-paneled cabinet, while a dedicated front hall closet adds everyday functionality. The open living space is a true highlight, featuring a generous living room with ample dining space, a focal fireplace, and a bright kitchen with upper and lower cabinetry, plus a peninsula, perfect for stool seating. The oversized bedroom offers high ceilings, beautiful natural light, and a walk-in closet. A full bathroom with a tiled shower and bathtub is conveniently located nearby. Additional conveniences include common no-fee laundry in the basement, a private storage unit, and assigned off-street parking. The condo fee includes heat and hot water—a valuable everyday perk—along with snow removal and well-maintained landscaping. A rare opportunity to own a centrally located College Hill residence in one of Providence’s most desirable neighborhoods, this Bowen Street beauty is a must-see.
