About this property

The historic Cole Farmhouse #USA1731

The historic Cole farmhouse may be the oldest standing house in Providence.
Located in the most desirable neighborhood in Providence, near coffee shops, artisan stores, and restaurants — less than 2 miles from Brown University and Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). The serene cul-de-sac where Cole Farm is nestled retains the quiet, warm and relaxed atmosphere of the historic farm.

The farmhouse boasts open rustic layout, spectacular chimneys, wide-plank flooring, and striking period details.

Our resident Rhode Island Red hens are both charming and productive — their fresh eggs are a guest favorite.

Enjoy the beautiful porch overlooking the front yard shaded by magnificent old walnut trees, and the large deck in our backyard.

If you are into architectural history this will be a very special place. While the magnificent chimneys, wide floor boards and vintage bathroom retain the farmhouse feel, you'll enjoy a fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances for a most comfortable stay. Other amenities include high-end espresso machine, dishwasher, washer/ dryer, air purifiers, high-speed WiFi and much more.

The master bedroom has king-size bed with an adjustable base -- perfect for a good night’s sleep.

Located in the East Side, only 2 blocks off Blackstone Boulevard (known just as "the boulevard' to locals), with a 2 mile running/walking track in the middle of a street of lovely homes. A ten-minute walk takes you to Hope St, where you find lots of restaurants, Seven Stars bakery (one of the very best in the USA), lovely independent shops and a public library.

Guest Access: Minimum Age 25: All Reservations must be booked by and accompanied by an adult who is 25 years of age or older. Guests are required to fill in a check-in form after booking.
