Perched on Providence's historic College Hill, this stunning 1850 Greek Revival has been thoughtfully renovated for today's active lifestyle. The granite stairs lead up to the entrance flanked by tapered columns. Step into the front hall and be immediately impressed with the warm wood floors and lovely architectural details. A gracious double-parlor showcases the 19th-century detail with its large wood framed fireplace and crown molding. Across the hall is a spacious dining room also with a fireplace, crown molding and a bay of windows. The adjacent eat-in kitchen has a center island, stone counters, stainless appliances and a butler's pantry. A spacious family room is at the back of the house and has a set of Atrium doors that open to a beautiful brick patio and a large rear yard. Upstairs, to the second floor are 4 bedrooms including the generous primary suite with a dressing room and spa like bath with double vanity and a glass enclosed shower. A pair of bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bath plus a fourth bedroom with ensuite bath and laundry area completes this level.
