Charming Craftsman Bungalow in Downtown Newport
Discover the timeless appeal of this Craftsman Bungalow, nestled in the heart of downtown Newport, NC. This delightful Chatham Charmer, boasts original 1940s character with pine floors, French doors, solid 5-panel doors, exquisite trim detail, and period-appropriate replacement windows.
Recent updates include major mechanical improvements (electric and plumbing), new kitchen flooring, new stainless refrigerator and dishwasher. The 1,450 square foot cottage features 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, a quaint sunroom, and the quintessential white picket fence!
A terrific feature is the bonus space on the upper level, which, though not included in the official square footage due to ceiling height, is perfect for a playroom, bunk room, or studio. This upper level also includes a half bath and access to a large floored attic space,
Set on a generous .51-acre lot, the property includes a large carport and a substantial 12x24 workshop with power, ideal for staying organized. Portions of the front and rear yards are fenced, making it a great space for your pets.
The large lot offers plenty of room for RV and/or boat parking as well!
Conveniently located within a block of Newport Elementary School, a coffee shop, a brewery, and an ice cream shop, and just a couple of blocks from a Mexican restaurant, library, and Italian ice shop. Cherry Point is less than 15 minutes away, and the beach is about 20 minutes from your doorstep.
Don't hesitate, schedule a time to tour this light and bright, charming bungalow today.
