Rural-feeling community within commuting distance of Providence and Boston

Just over the Rhode Island state line in Massachusetts, West Wrentham is a quiet community where locals live on large plots of land in spacious homes. Families are attracted to the area thanks to a well-rated school system and commutability to several major towns in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, including Providence, Worcester and Boston. “It’s more of a slow pace of life. You have the farmland, trees, foliage – the whole nine yards,” says Amber Cadorette, Realtor at KW Premier Properties and local resident. “I had someone move there because they wanted that nice little dead-end street, a pond and their backyard, that tranquility. But you’re about 30 minutes from Providence and an hour from Boston, so it’s a nice, central spot.”
