Sweet Edgewood Cottage steps to RWU Park

Quaint and Charming Single Family historic Home just a 10 minute drive to downtown Providence. Bright and airy space with modern upgrades and historic charms. Stylishly appointed home features hardwood floors, updated kitchen and baths, and comfortable furnishings. Short walk to all that Roger Williams Park and Pawtuxet Village have to offer, or head right into downtown Providence. Easy highway and airport access.

Pups permitted with prior approval and a $150 cleaning fee per pet. On street parking only/No driveway. Strictly nonsmoking.

More Details:

The Home:

This private home welcomes you with a cozy screened front porch and benched entry nook. The main living level is spacious with a proper dining room, large living room, and large kitchen with 2-top counter seating. A half bathroom, tucked away off the back hall, completes the first floor. Upstairs there are two bedrooms. The primary bedroom features gorgeous west facing skylights above a king sized bed. The secondary bedroom, ideally set up for a child, single occupant, or cozy couple, features a built-in full-size bed. The second floor full bath offers a nicely appointed soaking tub/shower combo. The second floor is completed by a large office with comfortable desk area, with plenty of room to roll out the provided yoga mats should it be a work-free stay. Laundry is provided and located in the home's lower level. The backyard is small and simple, but fully fenced in for your pup and features a cozy shaded outdoor seating area.

Other things to note:

For Summer months, the home currently offers air conditioning in both bedrooms via standing portable units. The first floor has an air conditioning window unit that cools the level nicely as well.

The primary bedroom offers heavy window drapes but no skylight shades. If you are a sensitive sleeper, bring your favorite sleeping eye mask, or one can be provided for you :)

There are stairs from the street to the property entrance. Interior stairs are typical for a 150 year old property but if you have difficulty navigating steeper steps this home is not recommended for you.

The Neighborhood:

This home is conveniently located right on the line between Providence’s lively Washington Park, and Cranston‘s historic Edgewood neighborhoods. A short walk can bring you either to the cove and marina in Edgewood, or right into Roger Williams Park, our beautiful city park.

Also within walking distance is Pawtuxet village. Pawtuxet village is considered a best kept New England travel secret. Only a few miles from downtown Providence, this quaint walkable community boasts lovely views, great food and drink, eclectic shops and a friendly laid back vibe.

Getting around:

The home is easily accessible via a short Uber or Lyft ride from downtown Providence or the airport. It is also located in the city's Spin bike & Scooter rental zone (via the "Spin" app). On street parking only/no driveway.

Short 15 minute uber from TF Green airport.
1 block to Roger Williams Park.
3 miles to downtown Providence.
1.5 miles (scenic/walkable) to Pawtuxet Village.
Public transportation and bike/scooter rental easily accessible.
Walkable to Johnson and Wales Harborside campus.

It's easy to like this home
This home was in a convenient location for trips to both beautiful Roger Williams Park and downtown Providence entertainment. The host was very gracious, providing extras like breakfast supplies. While the neighborhood was in the midst of replacement of water lines - concluding into the house- , good communication with the host made it possible to stay here without disruption. The home was very nicely furnished, and very comfortable for our grandson (age 4).

Christmas Trip
This location met all of our needs. We were within five minutes to the rest of our locations for our family Christmas trip. The stairs were a little awkward, but we managed to navigate them.

Second stay-great home
This was our 2nd time staying at this beautiful home! We love the convenient location and the ease of access. Very beautifully decorated, well stocked, and great for my husband, myself, and our 6 y/o daughter. We come to visit our family often in RI and would definitely stay again!

Great Providence area stay
A beautifully decorated perfect house for small families. Our toddler had no issue navigating the home. There’s a bedroom with a crib, bed and changing table that keeps dark for nap/sleep time. The kitchen had all the essentials, and the dining room is spacious and cozy. The backyard set up is cute too. The street parking was very easy, we never had to park further away than in front of the house. Very close to a beautiful park. We loved the house!

Charming vibe
This is a charming older home with updated conveniences and decor. Very cool. It was a great location for exploring the area. We spent a day in Newport, Narragansett beach, and Cape Cod. We also visited family and friends and enjoyed a number of restaurants, like the wonderful Crepe Corner for breakfast, and, Andimo’s for Italian food. We felt very at home in this wonderful property.

Incredible weekend stay thanks to an exceptional hostess!
My two teenage boys and I arrived late on a recent Friday after a swim meet at a competition pool in the area. We were staying south of Providence for the swim meet which included five sessions over three days. We selected this restored home rental vs a hotel so that we could have more space. Prior to our arrival our hostess, Rita, had sent us plenty of information to assist us with check in and to tell us what to expect about our stay. Despite the day’s extreme humidity and warmth we entered the house to find a comfortable 74 degrees. I should note that check in was as smooth as can be. Aside from the cool comfort our first impression once inside was how charming and welcoming the home is. The decor is very inviting and the home immaculately clean. Rita had left maps of the area along with fresh flowers and a bottle of wine on the dining room table. The kitchen was very well appointed and I enjoyed cooking during our stay. In the fridge we discovered fresh strawberries and eggs….all that she had previously told us we were welcome to share. Upstairs we discovered that in the room with skylights Rita had even left sleeping masks in the event it was too bright. My boys and I instantly felt at home and in fact frequently referred to returning there over the course of the weekend to “going home”. I’ve stayed at many wonderful VRBOs over the years that I have also rated 5 stars. I can honestly say that this property and hostess Rita are a cut above. Thank you Rita!

Great Stay!
We had a great experience staying at this cottage. This was one of the most well stocked VRBOs we have ever stayed in. The property manager thought of everything you could possibly need and more. The decor is beautiful and it was very spacious for me, my husband, and daughter. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of linens and paper goods. The kitchen had all the staples that you would need for cooking along with a coffeemaker and tea. The host was very responsive and left us a nice bottle of wine when we arrived. We will definitely be looking to stay again when we are in the area.

Charming home with so many beautiful elements
Absolutely loved our stay. We were in Providence to celebrate Thanksgiving at our Son's place. The kitchen was great to work in preparing food to bring over to my Son & Daughter In Law. This home is enchanting & relaxing. Slept the best I have slept in months. I loved falling asleep looking up at the stars through the skylights above the bed. I took advantage of the lovely office/art studio/yoga room. Terrific matts are there for you to use and I enjoyed the vibe each day. The only thing you need to keep in mind is the stairs are a bit awkward as they wind their way up to the second floor. My husband & I have bad knees so we left our suitcases on the main level. Despite that one issure for us I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Lovely hostess thought of so many wonderful items to leave for us.

Incredible Rental
This was one of the best vacation rentals I have ever stayed at. The attention to detail was beyond impressive. There were adorable and thoughtful touches throughout the house, additional amenities basically anything you could think of and more. I stayed with my sister-in-law and our toddler daughters and it was perfect for us. Great location, great vibes, great everything. We couldn't have been happier with it!

Amazing!
We had a wonderful time. The home was beautiful, cozy, and absolutely spotless! Rita did such a good job making us feel at home from a bottle of wine upon arrival, to having all the essentials available in the kitchen (eggs, butter, spices, coffee etc. etc.) to making sure our dog had everything he also needed to have a comfortable stay. The house was loaded with nice little touches that we very much appreciated; shampoo, conditioner, bubble bath, soft towels, and really everything we could have needed or wanted! We have already recommended this property to a few friends and family and would love to stay again if we come to the area! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
