Providence, RI Compass negotiated the sale of ‘Moses Brown Ives House’, 10 Brown St., on the East Side for $4.325 million. Bob Walsh, sales associate of Compass Providence, represented the seller. According to data maintained by the Rhode Island Statewide MLS, this transaction represents one of the top three residential sales ever in Providence, and the highest sale in Rhode Island’s capital city, year-to-date.*

Privately sited atop the East Side’s College Hill, the historic Greek Revival estate was initially built in 1835 and has undergone several substantial renovations since its construction. The home has six bedrooms, six full and two half bathrooms, and city-views across its nearly 10,000 s/f of living space. Noteworthy property highlights include manicured grounds, several entertaining terraces, library, chef’s kitchen and billiards room.

Today, the home blends history with modern craftsmanship and smart home standards.

“It was an absolute honor and true privilege to be entrusted to represent the seller of ‘Moses Brown Ives House’,” said Walsh. “Rich with history and steeped with academic ties, I’m thrilled to see this gem of a property be passed on to the perfect stewards who will continue to care for this significant Providence landmark.”

Historically, only five residential properties have ever traded above $4 million in Providence. Agent’s currently affiliated with Compass have participated in three out of these five record breaking sales.
