Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from December 08, 2023
The historic Battey-Barden House is a wonderfully preserved piece of RI history with timeless allure. This ca. 1816 Federal-style Colonial farmhouse, built by a prosperous Rhode Island industrialist, sits proudly on 5.1 acres that include stonewall-edged fields, a meandering stream, a large garden, abundant fruit bushes, and an inground pool with a beautiful bluestone patio. An architecturally designed, detached carriage house offers a 2-car garage, a large storage loft, and 2 horse stalls, all overlooking a fenced paddock & small pond. Inside the house, you’re greeted by the warmth of wide-plank wood floors and 6 original fireplaces. The sunny, eat-in kitchen occupies the home's southern ell and includes a large island and french doors leading out to a deck. Other 1st floor rooms incl. a dining room with original beehive oven, living room, family room, den/office, and 1/2 bathroom big enough to add a shower, should you wish. Original ca. 1825 stenciling adorns the home’s front entryway—a special detail that led to its inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. On the 2nd floor is a large sitting room, primary bedroom, 2nd bedroom, full bathroom, and a 3rd cozy bedroom, nursery or office. The finished 3rd floor includes a spacious 4th bedroom, plus a possible 5th bedroom, playroom, or family flex space. Scituate offers low taxes, good schools & an easy commute to Providence.

What Locals Say about Scituate

  • Trulia User
    "Small friendly neighborhood. No restaurants or gas stations. There is a Post Office with a very nice Post Mistress. The road is split. Scituate on the 116 side and Cranston on the right of Seven Mile Road. Very Unique town."

    "I have a car. I feel that your own vehicle is necessary in Scituate. Especially for commuting to and from work and for shopping and running errands. People live in rural areas for a reason; peace and quiet."

    "We've lived here for about 8 years and absolutely love the woods, it's close to everything, but far enough away from everything. We live in the Ring Rocks community and everyone is very friendly, great place for dogs, families, and adventures!!!"

    "The commute you choose to live where you want to. I have several options, not outside a 15 minute ride to an interstate. RI... is sort of close to everything. Unless you’re a true RIer... "

    "I’ve lived on this street since it was a one lane dirt road.... 60+ years. The speed limit has always been 25 mph. 60 years ago, it was upheld. Now that it’s a two lane, paved country road it’s like the autobahn! There is a lot of through traffic bypassing downtown Coventry. It’s horrid."
