Built for railroad worker George D. Wilbur and his wife Mary Douglass Wilbur in 1894, this historic property offers warm hard wood floors, a sumptuous marble mantle, exterior wood clapboard and shingle siding, decorative detailing, gorgeous original windows and a delicate stained glass window in the stairwell. The main floor is set up for entertaining or cozy nights at home, offering an easy flow between the double parlor living room, spacious dining room, eat-in kitchen and large fenced yard. The second level has three bedrooms, an oversized bathroom and a convenient laundry room. Under a one-year-old roof is a full-depth unfinished attic which can be made into your studio, playroom or overflow space for guests. House is being sold in "as-is" condition. Available for the first time in 40 years, this roomy Queen Anne style cottage is located just off Hope Street, in close proximity to Brown University, Moses Brown School and Hope High School. It has easy access to highways and commuter rail and is on two major bus transit routes.
