There’s No House In The World Like This One In Rhode Island
If you’ve spent any time walking around the lovely and historic College Hill area of Providence, this place has probably caught your attention! How could it not? With such striking colors and unique architecture that really stands out amongst its neighbors, this place is simply one of a kind.
Fleur-de-Lys Studios is a historic art studio and national historic landmark found on Thomas Street in Providence.
Though the College Hill area of Providence boasts dozens of historically rich pieces of architecture, many argue that the Fleur-de-Lys house is the most brilliantly unique!
The building was designed by Sydney Burleigh and constructed in 1885.
The front facade of the studio is the most breathtaking. It has fantastic and elaborate stuccoe filling in the partial timber.
Fleur-de-Lys Studios became a significant literary reference when legendary Rhode Island horror fiction writer H.P. Lovecraft included it in "The Call of Cthulhu."
This house in Rhode Island certainly is one of a kind! Click here for more unique attractions found in Little Rhody.
