Description

Set on a spacious corner lot with over 30,000 square feet of tree-lined land, this classic Cranston Cape offers just over 1,800 square feet of inviting living space. Originally a 3-bedroom home, one bedroom was opened up to create a formal dining room—making it a 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout that feels open and flexible. Hardwood floors, great natural light, and a newer heating system add to the comfort and charm.

One of the most unique features of this property is the spring-fed fountain on site—a peaceful touch with a nod to the area’s history. The lot is well-drained thanks to a French drain system and includes a whole-house generator for year-round peace of mind.

A detached outbuilding adds approximately 700 square feet of bonus space, with garage/storage below and a finished upper level featuring a kitchen, living area, bedroom, and full bath. Whether you envision a guest cottage, creative studio, or future retreat space, this home offers room to grow in a serene, well-established neighborhood.

Inclusions: This unique property includes a former in-law apartment, originally built before 1997 without permits. Electrical and plumbing to the unit were professionally disconnected in 2012 per city requirement. While the space is currently not a legal or functional dwelling unit, recent updates to Cranston’s ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) ordinances may offer an opportunity for future re-permitting or conversion—buyer to perform due diligence. The space presents flexible potential for multigenerational living, guest use, or creative reimagining.
