The 2½-story home is known as Young Seamans House, and it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the College Hill Historic District. In the listing for the historic designation, the home is noted for its clapboard exterior, gable roof and central Doric portico.
The home features high-ceilinged rooms, with wide-plank flooring throughout, according to Compass Providence. The kitchen features marble countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The primary bedroom upstairs features a custom-made closet, while the lower level of the home features a fireplace recreation room, a spa-like sauna and a workout room, the firm said.
While the property has a historic nature, it features several trappings of modernity, including an electric vehicle charging station, according to Compass Providence.
“The home has been brilliantly revitalized with great attention to detail, honoring its impressive history, infused with 21st century amenities,” according to a listing for the home posted by Places & Spaces Realty LLC.
The seller of the home was represented by Agueda Del Borgo, of Places & Spaces Realty. Kira Greene, a founding agent of Compass Providence, represented the buyer.
The historic property was most recently valued by Providence assessors in fiscal 2024 as being worth $1 million, with $400,200 of that attributed to the value of the land, while the rest comes from the value of the home, according to the city’s online property tax evaluation database.
According to the trustee’s deed, a public record of the sale, the home was sold by Phyllis Dennery and Gregory Mundy, as trustees of the Mundy Living Trust. The property was purchased by Craig Stewart and Jessica Stewart, of Providence, according to the deed.
