About 2521 Crestview Drive
Ideally located in the bay front community of Bayshores, this charming four-bedroom, four-bathroom cottage style home is desirably nestled on the quiet and rarely traveled end of Crestview Drive on an over-sized lot. Originally built in 1952, with substantial additions in 1990, and a recent remodel of the kitchen and two baths, as well as, newer floors in the main living areas. The home still captures the beach house charm that is so sought after in Newport. The open beamed ceilings, paired with generously sized bedrooms and living spaces add to the casual comfort. The finishing touch is the large master retreat, complete with fireplace, spacious walk-in closet, separate soaking tub, and large walk-in shower. Outdoor living can be enjoyed on either side of the two patios and in the refreshing private pool. This property offers a unique acquisition opportunity in a coveted bay and beach-oriented community.
