About This Home
Step into this expansive 1871 farmhouse set on 2 acres, offering a wide range of flexible living and workspace options. The first floor includes a large kitchen with extensive cabinet storage, a mudroom with tons of enclosed storage and pantry, two full bathrooms, first-floor laundry off the kitchen, and dining room and living rooms. A first-floor bedroom and an additional office, also suitable for use as a bedroom, feature an exterior door with direct access to a covered patio that was just completed this past summer. A back deck off the kitchen extends the outdoor space and leads to the back yard. The home is equipped with four heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling throughout. Upstairs, you'll find four additional bedrooms, all with double closets, along with a sitting room and two adjoining bonus rooms suitable for storage, guest space, or other uses. The property also includes a heated and insulated workshop currently used for soap production, as well as a substantial 42×47 barn with 16-foot ceilings, a working crane lift, and capacity for equipment or large vehicles. Outside, the yard provides open space for gardening, along with established blueberry, raspberry, and blackberry bushes that provide a reliable seasonal harvest. With multiple bedrooms, bonus rooms, and functional work areas throughout, this property offers extensive space for a wide range of uses. The layout and size may also support potential income/rental opportunities, and the outbuildings accommodate various home-based hobbies or projects. The property has been consistently maintained and updated over the years. Located close to I-95 and Newport's amenities. Far enough from the busy town while still maintaining everyday convenience.
