Modern Urban Single Family     Providence, RI

Picture

Project Size
2,057 sf

Project Type
New Construction | Single Family

Project Year
2019

Our client purchased this substandard lot in the Smith Hill neighborhood of Providence and sought to build a modern home for their small family. The lot size is just over 1,800 sf, and was an irregular shape, presenting challenges for meeting setback and zoning requirements while achieving the our client’s goals.

The solution was a modern, urban-style home. Building on a preliminary design provided by the client, this new construction has three bedrooms and two and half bathrooms. On the first floor, large windows above street level offer security while flooding the living areas with light. The third-floor balcony offers
panoramic treetop views unlike a typical urban house. A sauna room and full basement meet the client’s exercise needs. Oriented away from the street, the house embraces an intimate backyard garden oasis. Read more about this project in an article featured in Providence Monthly.
