    Attention investors, contractors, and rehabbers! This 4-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a rare value-add opportunity in Providence's desirable South Side market. With 1,677 square feet, off-street parking, and R-3 zoning, the property provides significant upside for fix-and-flip investors, buy-and-hold landlords, or developers seeking their next project.

The existing footprint and bedroom count provide a strong foundation for a full renovation with the potential to capitalize on increasing demand for updated housing in Providence. Conveniently located near downtown Providence, major highways, hospitals, universities, shopping, restaurants, and public transportation. Whether you're seeking your next renovation project, long-term rental investment, or redevelopment opportunity, this property offers the location and potential to deliver strong returns. Sold strictly as-is. Buyer to conduct their own due diligence regarding zoning, permits, and future use. Cash, hard money, renovation financing, or private financing preferred. Don't miss this chance to add value and build equity in one of Rhode Island's strongest investment markets.
