Set on .36 manicured and landscaped acres on picturesque Cheney Street in Newport, NH, this recently refreshed, 5 bedroom, 2 bath New Englander is only a 2 minute walk from downtown. Boasting high ceilings and newly refinished floors throughout, the home is ready to go. With new paint inside & out, and a spectacular 3rd floor Classroom/Office/Craft room (for those days when the kids are home) the property combines old world craftsmanship with modern amenities. Stately bay windows, curved arches, sophisticated moldings and original maple floors combine with a modern eat in kitchen, state of the art heating system and generous storage areas to create the best of both worlds. The attached barn is a blast from the past giving you massive storage but could easily be converted into additional living space. Stately coffered beams in the sitting room and an elegant circular staircase are highlights of the home's exquisite craftsmanship. The Richards Library and Arts Center, summer farmers market, restaurants and coffee shops are just steps away from your front door. Only 15 minutes to Lake Sunapee, the 75 mile Sunapee-Ragged-Kearsarge Greenway trail network and Vail's Mount Sunapee Ski resort. 30 minutes to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center.  Open House Saturday Oct 5th 10am until Noon
