Mount Hope High School Home for Sale

The Mt. Hope High School neighborhood in Bristol is centered around the namesake high school, which is known for leading the country's oldest Fourth of July parade. The area features a mix of Colonial homes with grassy lawns and ornamental bushes, as well as contemporary ranch-style new constructions from 2023, characterized by covered front porches and attached garages. Residential streets like Jane Lane and Carol Avenue end in cul-de-sacs, contributing to the neighborhood's quiet atmosphere. Small parks are scattered throughout, adding greenery and vibrancy. The neighborhood is also home to Roger Williams University, whose presence is felt in the surrounding areas. The local schools have good reputations, with Colt Andrews Elementary and Kickemuit Middle School both receiving B-plus ratings in academics. Mt. Hope High School, with over 900 students, maintains a 14 to 1 student-teacher ratio and has a notable girls’ gymnastics team. For things to do, residents often visit Hope Street, the commercial corridor on the west end, which offers grocery shopping at Seabra Foods and sessions at Rhode Island Hot Yoga. The Beach House provides waterfront dining with a creative seafood menu, and the nearby East Bay Bike Path offers a nearly 15-mile trail to Providence. The neighborhood's low crime risk, compared to the national average, adds to its appeal for potential home buyers.
