About This Home
Every historic home has a story. Few have been restored with such respect for the past. This extraordinary c.1890 Queen Anne Victorian, one of Woonsocket’s architectural treasures, offers 5,188 SF of timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful updates. Original details abound, including beautifully restored hardwood floors, intricate millwork, decorative tile, stained glass, graceful curved-glass windows, three original fireplaces—including a stunning Italian fireplace in the living room—an original secretary desk and the original gas light at the grand staircase. The modernized kitchen preserves its historic character with original Fontaine cabinetry, while all bathrooms have been tastefully renovated. The second floor offers three bedrooms plus an office, while the third floor provides four additional bedrooms for exceptional flexibility. Lovingly restored by its current owners, significant improvements include rebuilt porches with custom railings and columns, refinished hardwood floors, restored Juliet balconies, a newer furnace, 200-amp electrical service, complete removal of knob-and-tube wiring, blown-in insulation, a walkout basement, and an original slate roof. Reclaimed brick from a long-hidden fourth fireplace creates a charming patio walkway. Located within the South Main Street National Register Historic District, this remarkable residence is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of one of Rhode Island’s most distinctive historic homes.
