Close community living in Greystone-Centredale

With an annual festival and two namesake elementary schools within walking distance, Greystone-Centredale is a North Providence neighborhood where community is key. “We like to call some of our neighborhood’s villages if they operate like a small town. Greystone-Centredale is one of those places,” says Ken Scotti, a broker associate with RE/MAX Properties and a North Providence resident. “Kids walk to school, and there are popular locally owned restaurants in the area.”

Cape Cods, split levels and ranch styles in Greystone-Centredale

Greystone-Centredale’s winding roads are lined with dwellings built throughout the 1950s. Most houses are two-to-three-bedroom ranch styles with sprawling or raised layouts. Homebuyers will also find a few Cape Cod cottages and split levels. Though residential streets don’t have sidewalks, the area’s wide, paved roads are still suitable for a stroll. Even with this amenity, houses typically have one-to-two-car garages or half-circle driveways. Homes here also cost between $350,000 and $500,000, a range similar to a North Providence home’s average $400,000 selling price. “This is a fast-moving area,” says Scotti. “Houses will sell within three weeks.”

Public education in Greystone-Centredale

Children north of Mineral Spring Avenue can attend Greystone Elementary, which has an overall B-plus on Niche. Those who live south of the street can go to the B-minus-graded Centredale Elementary. Graduates of both schools can attend Ricci Middle School. In addition to its overall B grade from Niche, the school has a diversity committee that organizes events like the annual Latinx Bingo Night, where local Latin-owned businesses donate food and other goods. Lastly, students can attend North Providence High School. Lending to the school’s B-grade academics from Niche, students must complete a senior project before graduating. It focuses on a social justice issue of the student's choice and should accumulate the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they developed throughout their education.

Shopping and dining on two major Greystone-Centredale roads

Two significant thoroughfares span Greystone-Centredale, providing the area with plenty of convenient amenities. Mineral Spring Avenue has several locally owned establishments, including Yacht Club Soda, which has served everything from classic cola to pineapple-flavored drinks since opening in 1915. The Centredale Revival is a restaurant known for its upscale bar bites, swanky interior and entertainment. “There’s live music here every Saturday. It’s a fun spot,” says Scotti. A 3-mile drive west on U.S. Route 44, known locally as Smith Street, leads to The Crossing at Smithfield. Shoppers can get groceries at the Rhode Island local Dave’s Fresh Marketplace or go to nationally known options like Target, Dick’s Sporting Goods and Barnes & Noble.

Getting around Greystone-Centredale

A 7-mile drive east on Smith Street leads to downtown Providence. Bus riders will also find several Rhode Island Public Transit Authority stops along Mineral Spring Avenue.

Greystone-Centredale events

Every September since 2021, Smith Street has hosted the North Providence Village Festival. “It’s a newer event, but it’s still widely attended by Centredale-Greystone locals and the rest of North Providence,” says Scotti. The street is blocked off for an entire weekend as it fills with food trucks and other local vendors. The main stage has a variety of musical acts throughout the day, including the North Providence High School band. There’s also a kid zone with bounce houses and face painters.
