Description
Classic College Hill living on one of Benefit Street's most coveted blocks. Tucked inside the historic Bush-Updike House, circa 1847, this two-bedroom, one-bath condo pairs timeless architecture with everyday ease. High ceilings and elegant picture-frame molding set the tone, while an open kitchen makes the most of the light-filled layout. Generous closets, a dedicated storage area, and in-unit laundry bring rare convenience to a home of this era. Your own private entrance opens to a shared courtyard with room for a garden, framed by views of the historic steeple next door, one of the neighborhood's most photographed landmarks. Step out onto cobblestone streets and you're moments from the Providence Athenaeum, RISD Museum, WaterFire, and Thayer Street's shops and cafes, with Brown University, RISD, and Johnson & Wales all close by. This is a walk-everywhere address where a car becomes optional, and for those who keep one, monthly spaces are available to rent in nearby garages and lots. The best of both worlds: downtown Providence's energy at your doorstep, surrounded by the tree-lined parks, museums, and cultural institutions that make this pocket of the city so beloved.
