1281 Lake Rd, Newport, VT 05855
About this home
Living large in a small efficient home, it's all the rage today. This property is 14 big country acres within city limits and this home is just under 1,300 sq. ft. yet offers 3 bedrooms, a bath and half, great kitchen with oak cabinets, stainless steel appliances, kitchen, dinning, living room all with an open flow. There is a loft space for a den/office space or just for hanging out. The upstair bedroom is a complete en suite with it's own exterior balcony and half bath. A new roof, propane fueled broiler as well as a wood burning stove will help make this house the right choice for you. The land is both wooded and open and offers a pond, winding driveway, super set back off the road, amazing privacy and the forest for trails is abundant. I need to mention there is a 32 X 24 workshop separate from the house. It's an affordable rare find in the city.
