Mount Hope offers historic charm at a high elevation

Plus, there’s a strong academic streak to the community. “You’ve got Roger Williams University bordering Mount Hope to the south, so the college is integrated with the fabric of the neighborhood,” says Stefanie Carr, a Realtor with Lila Delman Compass. Mount Hope is a peaceful suburb for people who crave a dash of history and community.

Some of these will have renovated interiors, but comparatively large lots are the norm – yards can easily be more than a quarter-acre, dotted with mature trees. Homes built during the 2000s fall in the $800,000 range, including, for example, a four-bedroom ranch that sprawls across 2,500 square feet on a 2-acre lot. Some of these properties also feature views of Mount Hope Bay.
