About This Home

As of June 2022

Fantastic opportunity to own this 1840's historic colonial gem. A noble and stately pied-a-terre on storied Benefit Street. Set back from the congested thoroughfare, this home has it's own hidden approach about 300 feet off Benefit St. Completely updated with newer stainless kitchen appliances and honed black granite counters with a custom glass mosaic backsplash. This charming three story has three bedrooms and a full bath and a first floor lavette. The original wide planked floors are accented by a wrought iron wood burning fireplace in the center of the living room. Take refuge from the city on your private fenced flagstone patio surrounded by a peaceful green city garden.
The George Owen House (circa1843) perched quietly in the College Hill area of the Eastside, is a short walk to the colleges, downtown venues, Waterfire, train station and fine dining and shopping. One hour from Boston, three hours from NYC and a few quick moments from the beautiful Rhode Island shoreline.
