Wonderful restored single family home in the heart of Historic College Hill neighborhood. Perched upon Benefit St and looking out over the Providence River and downtown Providence. Three levels of exceptional refurbished living space. Incredible original details throughout the house, including exposed original beams, and wide plank pine floors. Brand new custom kitchen with quartz counters, and Fisher & Paykel and GE appliances, and textured white ceramic subway tile backsplash. Replacement windows throughout with privacy shutters. First floor living room with built-ins for storage, and a dining room immediately off the kitchen. The second level has two bedrooms with custom built-in storage systems, and an updated full bathroom. The lower level can serve as a guest space or, as currently used, as an office. There's a full bathroom with a step-in shower, and a utility room for storage and stacked laundry setup. Direct vent Navien heating system and an on-demand hot water setup. The lower level also has French doors which open to a brilliant private red brick patio with a surrounding stone wall & a small water feature - fabulous for seasonal al fresco dining and cocktails. Close to Brown and RISD, easy access to Rts 95 & 195, steps to India Point Park & the waterfront, Trader Joe's, and the numerous cafes, restaurants, and shops. A very special gem! CURRENT TAX AMOUNT DOES NOT INCLUDE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION REDUCTION.
