Attention builders, investors, flippers. Waterviews in Newport of Easton's Pond, across to Easton's Beach, and the Cliff Walk. Sited on a 14,810 sf (.34 acre) rectangular lot, this three-bed, one-bath Cape still has much of its original character and charm. The large south-facing family room, with its sunny water-facing views and deck that opens to the backyard, is a gem of possibility for an additional bed, suite, and square footage. The primary bedroom also has views facing the water and a walk-in closet, with eaves that offer room to expand. Situated on the edge of the Kay and Eustis neighborhood, Easton's Pond is beloved by locals for its diverse birding, wildlife, and pedestrian access to the beach. Hop on just a block away and enjoy a cruise to the Cliff Walk. Conveniently located near Newport Hospital, Braga Park, and a short commute to highways. Beaches, Bellevue, and downtown are close by in a few minutes. Close enough to everything, but tucked away enough to have your own slice of Newport. Also listed on MLS as vacant land #1396799
