    What's special

    Move-in-ready cottageUpdated hall bathAttractive lvp flooringTiled entry and hallwayThree bedroomsLight-filled kitchen
    Rare opportunity in Newport! Situated on over 1.02 acres, this unique property combines an updated 1950s cottage with two impressive detached workshop/garage buildings, an additional parcel, and deeded access to a community boat ramp. The charming cottage has seen numerous updates during the current owner's 20 years of ownership and offers a comfortable, functional layout. Inside, you'll find a spacious living room with attractive LVP flooring, a tiled entry and hallway, and a light-filled kitchen. The home also features three bedrooms, an updated hall bath, and a convenient mudroom/utility room. Outside is where this property truly sets itself apart. The 43' x 22' detached garage/workshop is heated and cooled by a 2.5-ton HVAC system and includes hot and cold water, a floor drain, and plenty of workspace for projects, hobbies, equipment, or storage. An additional .63+ acre parcel provides beautiful open space along with a second 40' x 22' metal workshop/building, which is wired and plumbed and includes a utility sink. Whether you're looking for exceptional garage and workshop space, room for your boat and recreational equipment, or simply the flexibility that comes with extra land and substantial outbuildings, this property offers possibilities that are increasingly hard to find. Additional highlights include deeded access to the community boat ramp, no HOA, no flood zone, and no city taxes, all within the sought-after Bogue Elementary, Broad Creek Middle, and Croatan High School districts. Over an acre, two large workshops, an extra parcel, boat ramp access, and a move-in-ready cottage this is much more than just a home. It's a property built for someone who needs room to live, work, store, and play.
