RPL Completes Providence’s Highest Sale of 2023

Residential Properties Ltd. is excited to announce the sale of 53 Stimson Avenue on Providence’s East Side for $3.25 million. RPL Sales Associate Barbara Dacey represented the seller as the listing agent and RPL Sales Associate Jim DeRentis represented the buyer as the selling agent in this transaction.

According to State-Wide MLS data, this is the highest single-family home sale in Providence this year. RPL has now participated in 29 of the 39 Providence single-family home sales over $1 million this year, including 11 of the top 13 highest single-family sales in the city during 2023.

This gorgeous brick home on a private corner lot is in the heart of Providence’s East Side with crisp landscaping and artful hardscaping. A sweeping terra cotta and wrought iron staircase, custom paneled doors, and pristine hardwood floors create a richly detailed interior. A wood-burning fireplace and large windows lend a romantic atmosphere for entertaining, while top-of-the-line appliances please the inner chef in the gourmet kitchen, offering a stone-topped center island with a second sink. The nearby wet bar nicely begins or caps off an evening with guests. A light-filled conservatory/family room and a spacious slate patio with a built-in grill area and a fire pit add more versatile space for living. Upstairs, an array of three bedrooms flows through the second floor, including the owner’s suite with a private bath offering a dual-sink vanity and soaking tub. The amazingly well-appointed walk-in closet adds a dash of Savile Row. Finally, the finished, beautifully remodeled lower level provides a glass wine room, a media center with superb built-ins, and a stone fireplace for even more luxury and comfort. The unbeatable location is close to Thayer Street, Brown, RISD, the train station, and downtown, putting city amenities in easy reach.
