Presenting a sought-after two-family in a premier location on the East Side of Providence. This property features two move-in-ready units, including a sun-filled 5-bed, 2-bath owner’s unit spanning the second and third floors, and an updated first-floor unit that is currently rented. The owner’s unit impresses with soaring 10-foot ceilings, an abundance of windows, and updated hardwood floors that create a spacious and inviting interior. Additional features include an updated kitchen, two full baths, and a large walk-in closet that can be converted into an additional bedroom if desired. This townhouse-style layout provides exceptional space and flexibility, whether kept as-is, used as an artist studio, reimagined for future conversion, or continued use as a part-time Airbnb serving nearby colleges. The first-floor unit offers 2 spacious bedrooms, a bright living room, an eat-in kitchen, and a modern bathroom, along with an enclosed porch and off-street parking. Start your mornings on one of the two rear decks, enjoying beautiful sunrise views over the treetops toward the Seekonk River. This property also includes an attached two-car garage with generous storage space, additional off-street parking, and a full basement. Its prime location places you within walking distance of downtown Providence, as well as nearby restaurants, shops, schools, and markets, offering a vibrant urban lifestyle. With limited inventory in this highly desirable location, this one will go fast!
