Description
Tucked away at the corner of Ferry Road and Griswold Avenue, this distinctive New England Cape offers a rare combination of location, character, privacy, and an abundance of land in Historic Bristol, RI. Set back from the road and thoughtfully positioned to follow the natural curve of the lot, the home has an undeniable presence and exceptional curb appeal. Built in 1939, the main residence offers the warmth and character of a traditional Cape with generously proportioned rooms and a classic layout. A 2001 addition provides a comfortable open living room with gas fireplace and additional space for dining, along with a full bathroom connected to a first-floor bedroom, creating a flexible space for a first floor primary, guests or extended family. The expansive grounds feature mature landscaping, established trees, open lawns, and a level of privacy rarely found so close to town. Best of all, enjoy the ability to walk to Historic Downtown Bristol, with its restaurants, shops, waterfront, and vibrant year-round atmosphere. A truly special property with a setting that is difficult to replicate and the opportunity to create a home that reflects your own vision in one of Bristol's most coveted locations.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Average(Continued again) Well I'll just try and finish this up. Anyway, as if that wasn't bad enough, it was time for me to go to lunch as it was 10:41 and I had English next and 1st floor D wing usually has first lunch... And guess what? I wasn't even allowed to go to much because one of the teachers said I had to go back to the Alternative Learning Program room as I was enrolled in that program to be rewarded for doing what I was supposed to do but even then I really didn't receive many rewards for doing exactly that and when I tried to get away, he blocked the door on me, of course! So now I get punished for trying to follow my routine? Give me a break! So basically, from my view, the staff in this school cares nothing for you if you have an I.E.P and just seems to throw common sense out the window when dealing with these types of ordeals... Thank god for homeschooling!Other Review12y ago - Kickemuit Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is amazing, the staff is dedicated and nurturing to a degree. The administration has changed, and it has changed the climate quite a bit. Mr. Carbone was an awesome leader, kept everyone happy. Mrs. Hayes and Mrs. Homen are quite a bit more aggressive and keep a keen eye on each and every teacher. It has changed the climate, making teachers more accountable, but also not as happy. Change is difficult, and I think the staff are taking deep breaths and trying their hardest to cope with the added struggles. All in all, kids are number 1, and they are trying to teach responsibility, so if you forget your book or your homework frequently, yes, their are consequences, and I think that is a great thing!!Teacher Review13y ago - Colt Andrews School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageGreat school! Parents could step up more and make this school even better! The Parents group tried hard this year to do a lot for the students but the lack of parent support caused issues. As far as the teaching staff... They are awesome! They take the time to know you and your child's needs! They work to help your child succeed!Parent Review15y ago
