RPL’s Rowley Completes Sale of Historic College Hill Colonial

Residential Properties Ltd. announces the sale of 5 Burrs Lane on Providence’s East Side for $1.15 million. RPL Sales Associate Christopher Rowley proudly represented the seller in this transaction.

Included in the National Historic Register, this 1885, 3-bedroom, 2.1-bath Colonial has been lovingly updated to combine modern amenities with period detailing and historic charm. As you approach via the cobblestone path, you notice meticulous landscaping with features reminiscent of Frances Hodgson Burnett's 1911 classic “The Secret Garden.” Light-filled rooms and exposed beams create instant allure, along with hardwood flooring dating back to William Rea’s 1855 expansion of the home from an original dwelling that existed prior to the Revolutionary War. The temperature is maintained by discreet ductless A/C, baseboard heating, and a heat pump for maximum comfort.

All of this plus the enviable College Hill location allows for the best in city living.
