Sold Before Print - Entered For Comparable Sales Purposes. The Robert L. & Caroline S. Gilman House, circa 1931, is situated on a spacious lot on desirable Upper Elmgrove on Providence's historic East Side. The home has been completely transformed by Hill & Harbor Design + Build into a one of a kind masterpiece featuring beautiful design details and every imaginable amenity. By strategically removing an under-utilized back staircase, Hill & Harbor was able to substantially increase the size of the kitchen, and create a stunning walk-in pantry. The kitchen, crafted to maximize all facets of cooking, is a true showstopper with extensive custom details and an enviable suit of high-end appliances. Upstairs, a suite of rooms was rearranged to create a primary bedroom unlike any other. A sitting room with a secret door, disguised as a wallpaper covered bookcase, opens into a breathtaking custom closet. A second closet and an impressive primary bathroom, swathed in Calacatta Viola marble, round out the suite. Custom details throughout the home, including fine wallpaper and designer lighting fixtures, work to enhance the space while still paying homage to the home's history. A new solarium addition in the rear of the home connects the main house to the garage for easy access and added storage. A true masterpiece, in a prime location, this home is poised to enchant visitors for another hundred years.
