Welcome to 490 Howland Road in East Greenwich, where comfort, convenience and community converge to create the perfect haven called home. As you step into the living room, the focal point is a brick fireplace, adding warmth and character, while a bay window fills the room with natural light. Hardwood flooring extends throughout the main level. The kitchen is outfitted with warm cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, making it an inviting space for home cooking and dining. Glass doors lead out to an upper deck, offering a tranquil retreat for morning coffee and outdoor gatherings. Three bedrooms and one full bath on the main level provide comfortable accommodations. The lower level has two adjoining rooms that provide versatility for a home gym, office, or multi-generational living. Another brick fireplace adds coziness to a room that can be closed off with double glass doors for privacy. A laundry area and a second full bath also add convenience to the lower level. Adding to the practicality is a mudroom located between the garage and the driveway. Outside, the home sits on almost half an acre of land, providing ample space for outdoor activities in the fenced backyard. Sidewalks in the neighborhood make it easy to stroll or bike to nearby attractions, including Main Street in East Greenwich, renowned for its charming shops, dining options, and marinas. Centrally located in the state with easy access to TF Green Airport/Commuter Rail and Rte. 95.
