About this home
Rarely does a property offer this combination of lot size, parking, walkability, and future potential in the heart of Newport. Set on an oversized, fully fenced 0.21 acre lot just moments from Easton's Beach, Cliff Walk, Bellevue Avenue, and downtown Newport, 138 Gibbs Avenue presents an exceptional opportunity in one of the city's most sought after neighborhoods. Offering 2,278 square feet of living space, this meticulously maintained home features beautiful hardwood floors, 4 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and a functional floor plan designed for comfortable everyday living. The expansive backyard provides a private retreat rarely found in Newport, complete with a spacious deck, and stone patio/outdoor fireplace, perfect for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying Newport's coastal lifestyle. A detached two-car garage and parking for five additional vehicles provide a level of convenience seldom available in this location. While perfectly livable and well cared for as-is, the property also offers exciting opportunities for future enhancement. Buyers may explore additional expansion through remaining lot coverage or the potential for a third-floor dormer addition, allowing the home to evolve alongside their needs (subject to approvals). Whether seeking a year-round residence or seasonal retreat, 138 Gibbs Avenue delivers something increasingly difficult to find in Newport: space to enjoy today and flexibility for tomorrow....
