RPL Closes $1.45M Sale of College Hill’s Christopher H. Drowne House

Residential Properties Ltd. is proud to announce the sale of 20 Benefit Street on Providence’s East Side for $1.45 million. RPL Sales Associate Barbara Dacey of our Providence office represented the seller as the listing agent in this transaction.

According to State-Wide MLS data, RPL has participated in eight of the nine highest single-family home sales in Providence this year and has had the pleasure of listing this property the last three times it has sold.

The Christopher H. Drowne House is an elegant Greek Revival built in 1862 on College Hill that has been thoroughly updated for 21st-century living. With 6 bedrooms and 4.1 baths, a stunning staircase with a carved wood banister at the entry and a coffered ceiling, combined living, dining, and kitchen space create an exceedingly gracious tone. The cook’s kitchen lends custom cabinetry, top-quality appliances, and a stone-topped center island for a sparkling cooking backdrop, while a recently added half bath and mudroom complete the main level. The sumptuous second-floor owner’s suite offers a spacious walk-in closet and spa bath. A fireplaced garden-level apartment is the wonderful final flourish. The unparalleled location, in the historic East Side yet close to downtown, allows for a walkable lifestyle with visits to Hope and Thayer Streets.
