About this home

Unique and charming 2-family home, 78-80 Grotto Avenue, in the green and quiet Grotto neighborhood of Providence’s Eastside. In the same family since the late 1960’s, this is a rare opportunity for multi-family or condo development in a gorgeous, desirable area. Both units are spacious and bright, with original details intact, a wood-burning fireplace in each, and two levels of living space, including 3 bedrooms and one full bath. There is a front and a back porch, and two 2nd-story balconies. There is a gorgeous yard with mature trees. Each unit has a private entrance with charming original doors and glass. New heating systems and a dry basement provide ample storage space. This special home will require some updating and investment, but it represents an incredible opportunity for Providence living. Only a 10 min drive West of the Amtrak Station and Brown University, and within walking distance to coffee shops, the retail section of Wayland Square, and Whole Foods. Don't miss this investment opportunity! Showings to begin Thursday, June 11th.
