This Newport City grand dame is seeking someone who can appreciate the character of a more mature home. While she does show some signs of aging, she’s hoping you can see past that to discover the beauty of her original features, including wood flooring in many rooms, coffered ceilings, 15-pane glass doors, leaded glass windows, 2 fireplaces, and built-ins. She needs more than a fresh coat of paint and is looking for someone with vision, patience, and skills – or the willingness to hire tradespeople who can fix what’s broken and add some modern updates while shining a spotlight on the features that make her such a special find. The main level includes a formal entry, kitchen, dining room, living room, office space, ½ bath, screened porch, and 4-season porch overlooking the backyard and offering views of Lake Memphremagog. Two staircases lead upstairs, where you’ll find 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a ½ bath. A surprisingly private and lush backyard oasis is ready to be enjoyed, with young apple and cherry trees and room for a garden, kids, and pets. The location is convenient to everything in downtown Newport, including shops, boutiques, restaurants, the Tasting Center, the lake, recreation path, Gardner Park, and so much more. This home is being sold as-is and is priced accordingly. If you’re ready to breathe new life into a sweet older gal, come take a look.
