Extremely rare opportunity to rent an apt at Barnaby's Castle! This extravagant mansion was built in 1875 and then expanded in 1888. It is the premiere historic property on the West Side. It is being painstakingly restored with no detail missed.
This second floor apt floor plan includes an amazing Living Room, (16' X 16', 5"), found in the circular tower complete with a non-working marble fireplace. The ceiling is rimmed with a cherub frieze and the walls feature Murano glass wallpaper. The wooden herringbone floor is original to the home. Directly opposite is the Dining Room, (12' X 12', 9"), that enters from the hallway and connects to the kitchen.
The freshly painted kitchen has granite counters, white cabinetry and brand new stainless steel appliances being installed now. The bathroom features Carrara marble tile flooring, a soaking tub and a rare vintage Sherle Wagner sink with matching wastebasket.
The primary bedroom, (15' X 14', 6"), also includes a non-working marble fireplace and reproduction wallpaper from a Scottish Country house. The original, old growth, Douglas Fir flooring completes the look. The second bedroom, (12' X 14'), has the same original flooring style.
The laundry room is right across the hallway from your apt. Water and sewer is included in the rent as well. Hot water radiators by natural gas and portable A/C units too. Some furniture is included for your use and at no charge if it works for you. Credit check required. Agent. Minimum one-year lease.
Located in the heart of Broadway this is the spot. Nearby neighbors include the Nitro Bar, Schastea and the very popular Julian's restaurant. An easy walk down Sutton Street leads to Federal Hill and renowned world-class dining that is the best in the State. Less than a mile to I-95 and the RI Convention Center. Neighborhood living with easy access to it all!
Owner pays for water and sewer.
Cats are allowed at $50 extra per pet, per month.
