About this home

Opportunity knocks in the heart of Providence! This R-3 zoned vacant lot at 85 Ledge Street offers an excellent chance to build in one of the city’s most accessible and rapidly developing neighborhoods. Seller recently got the lot surveyed (see attachments). This parcel provides flexibility for multifamily, townhouse, or single-family development, subject to city approval. City water, sewer, gas, and electric are all nearby, and the location can’t be beat, just minutes to downtown Providence, commuter routes (95 & 146), local parks, restaurants, and shopping. Whether you’re a builder, investor, or future homeowner, this property offers a rare combination of location, zoning, and potential in a market where developable land is increasingly hard to find.
