Exceptional oversized two-family in Providence's desirable historic Elmhurst neighborhood! Each spacious unit offers 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, a bonus room ideal for a home office or additional living space, and off-street parking. The former owner's unit has been well maintained and showcases pride of ownership throughout. The current lease is expiring soon, creating an excellent opportunity to increase rental income to market rates.
