***OPEN HOUSES CANCELED DUE TO ACCEPTED OFFER - Welcome to 36 Messina Street, a well-maintained two-family home in Providence’s Wanskuck neighborhood offering space, updates, and investment potential. The first-floor unit features a flexible 1–2 bedroom layout with an eat-in kitchen and a full bath. The second-floor unit extends across two levels, providing a spacious 2–3 bedroom floor plan with its own full bath. Both apartments have been freshly painted, with significant recent updates to plumbing and electrical systems, many newer windows, and a natural gas line already in the house. The property sits on a generous lot with a large yard and a rare oversized driveway that offers dual-street access from Messina Street and Columbus Avenue, providing abundant off-street parking and easy in-and-out for tenants and guests. A sizable shed adds additional storage, while vinyl siding and a newer roof offer low-maintenance living for years to come. This location is just minutes from Providence College, area schools, shopping, and major highways, making it both convenient and desirable. Whether you’re looking for an owner-occupied option or a strong addition to your rental portfolio, 36 Messina presents an excellent opportunity with modern mechanical updates and classic charm.
