About this House

Captivating Zoeth Brown House (c1845) in Fox Point, completely reimagined and thoughtfully renovated for modern living. Original period details, pine floors, and character throughout. Charming side entry to the main level and an inviting center entry foyer leads to a living room and a living/playroom, each with a marble fireplace, and a family room with a gas fireplace. Delightful bright and open eat-in kitchen with white custom cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, vaulted ceiling, large dining area surrounded by windows, and French doors out to a stone patio overlooking the private fenced yard with mature plantings. A mudroom with laundry and a full bath completes the 1st floor. Primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, vaulted beamed ceiling, and a skylight, plus two other bedrooms and a full bath on the 2nd floor. The ground level offers its own private entrance to a living room, pantry, bedroom, and full bath, making it the perfect set-up for an in-law or au-pair situation. Central A/C. Gated driveway with 4 car parking. Excellent condition inside and out: recent roof, freshly painted interior, new boiler and new hot water heater. Ideally located just steps from Benefit Street – an easy walk to Trader Joe’s, Wickenden Street shops and restaurants, India Point Park, pedestrian bridge, Brown, RISD, and more. Very special!

    "Fox Point is an amazing & diverse neighborhood with great food options. Very walkable to downtown, Brown, RISD & pet friendly. Parking can be tight & occasional rowdyness at night but that's city life & part of the flavor you sign up for. Among my favorite communities in PVD. "
