In times of falling home values, people can’t help but be concerned about what their property is worth and a faulty appraisal can completely kill a deal. This week on my radio show, Rich and Steve are in the studio with Mike Miale from Statewide Real Estate Appraisal, LLC in Johnston. Besides talking about the latest market updates, they will discuss the new FHA regulations concerning appraisals and how they will affect buyers and sellers. Sometimes on Real Estate Insight we tend to focus on higher end properties, but this week Caroline Butterfield, an agent from our Providence Office, will be on to showcase a great affordable home in Riverside. 
It’s not every day in the East Providence area that you come across a home, full of country charm. This 4 bedroom beauty, located at the end of a scenic cul-de-sac in Riverside, is special in this regard. Built in 1976, it’s hard to believe that this quaint home isn’t in a rural area. Instead, 54 Scott drive offers both the convenience of city living and a breathtaking pastoral setting to those who live inside its walls. The interior provides everything you could ask for, whether entertaining friends and family at Thanksgiving, or just relaxing in front of a crackling fire. The layout is convenient and thought out, with a spacious great room/kitchen, perfect for any task that may come your way. The four bedrooms offer ample room for you and your guests, and with space comes possibilities. Any one of these rooms would make a wonderful office, game room or library. The lot is extremely large for the area, boasting an impressive 13,000 square feet of private and lush landscaped gardens. You will want to spend your free time lounging on the brick patio, listening to the sounds of nature. Best of all, 54 Scott Drive is set close to the water, with a scenic creek right at your doorstep. Riverside is a charming town set on Narragansett Bay, full of history and character. This local is very convenient to Providence, Barrington and major shopping centers, which makes for shorter travel time and fewer hours stuck in traffic. In addition, you are close to Riverside’s historic favorites, like the Crescent Park Carousel, as well as the local Yacht Club. Caroline Butterfield has been a multimillion producer for over 25 years and is constantly expanding her knowledge and expertise in an ever changing real estate environment. She values the opportunity to work with all buyer and seller clients, from first time home buyers to senior citizens. When she’s not selling real estate, Caroline enjoys golf, theater, reading, skiing and spending time with her family.
