This Contemporary style home has incredible potential for a buyer that is handy and a location you'll love! Featuring a spacious & modern concept floor plan with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and a private .89 acres of land with a large lawn. Situated close to downtown Newport (approx. 2.5 miles) yet offering a quiet country setting. Also included is a shared right-of-way to Lake Memphremagog! This home is very solidly built, has a great concrete foundation, two wood fireplaces and approximately 2700 sq. feet of finished living space. The main level offers direct entry from the 2-car attached garage, a formal entry, living/dining rooms with cathedral ceilings, eat-in kitchen, two bedrooms and a full bath. The second floor consists solely of a master suite with a full bath and balcony overlooking the back yard. There is additional living space in the full walkout lower level that consists of a family room, rec room (pool table included), guest room/office, laundry room, sauna, ½ bath and a utility room. This property is fully livable as-is with all utilities functioning but is in need of a new roof, decks, balcony, etc. in the very near future (contractor quotes on file and priced accordingly). With some renovations, this can be one spectacular property. As we say in the business, it's all about location!
