Property Description

A Rare Historic Mixed-Use Opportunity on Hope Street Water Views Over Half an Acre Grandfathered Multifamily & Commercial Uses Prime Hope Street Frontage Rarely does a property of this size and character become available along Bristol's historic Hope Street. Directly across from Narragansett Bay, 742 744 Hope Street offers approximately 21,930 square feet of land, prominent frontage, water views, and exceptional visibility along Bristol's Fourth of July parade route. Offered for the first time in over 50 years, the property includes the iconic Hope Diner and an 1880 late-Victorian three-family residence. Located within Bristol's Historic District, this is an opportunity to preserve and reimagine a piece of Bristol history. The residence must be preserved and cannot be demolished. Existing grandfathered multifamily and commercial uses offer potential for renovation and repositioning, subject to applicable approvals. The residence sustained significant third-floor fire damage in June 2025 and requires substantial renovation. Buyers should consult Bristol's Historic District Commission and Building Department regarding proposed improvements and uses. Just over half an acre. Across from the Bay. On Hope Street. Property is being sold AS IS, as shown. Buyers must independently verify zoning, permitted uses, historic preservation requirements, floodplain regulations, property condition, and necessary approvals.
