Property Description
This charming, historic multi-family colonial sits on .26 acres in bucolic Wakefield, RI. Built in 1883, the two-family home features 2,201 sq ft of living space: 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a detached garage, and a generous backyard. The first-floor unit includes 2 bedrooms, a living room, a large kitchen, and a full bathroom. The second-floor unit includes a large eat-in kitchen, three bedrooms, and a large, full bathroom with a clawfoot tub. This home can remain as it is, continuing as an investment or income-generating property, or be easily converted into a single-family home. ***Please note that the property is being sold "As-Is."*** Ideally located, the home is steps from the historic Neighborhood Guild, which features tennis courts, yoga classes, and painting lessons. Additionally, The Guild offers courses in creative writing, as well as children's activities including lessons in dance and painting. At the intersection of South County's quiet coastal lifestyle and South Kingstown's local highlights and conveniences, the home is just a ten-minute drive to Narragansett State Beach, minutes away from Matunuck Atelier and Audrey's Coffee House & Lounge, and a plethora of other restaurants, gourmet supermarkets, pharmacies, and the center of Old Wakefield. This one won't last!
