“We had a great experience using Jeff Lesley and his team for the purchase of our prior home in Carolina Beach, so we did not hesitate in working with them again for this home. Jeff and his team were responsive to our request, on short notice, to view this home, to expeditously arrange for the required due diligence, and to prepare and execute all of the necessary documentation. Jeff and his team have also assisted us with post-closing matters, such as identifying maintenance vendors and renovation contractors. We would definitely recommend Jeff and his team to our friends and family.”

“Anthony was instrumental in assisting my family with the sale of my mother's home upon her death. He was informative and knowledgeable about our area and the challenges we were facing with the condiiton of the home. He was in line with our thoughts and pricing which proved to be beneficial to all. Anthony maintained constant communicatoins with us throughout the process and made this difficult endeavor as smooth as possible. It was a pleasure working with him, so much so that I made an immediate referral to a collegue and he sold their property within days as well. They also are very pleased. I would highly recommend working with Anthony for your needs and would definitely work with him again should the need arise.”

We very much needed an experienced realtor with precise knowledge of area market trends and home values for this transaction; Sue Simpson was fantastic.

Learn more about what Newport has to offer.
Newport offers residents a vibrant blend of charming waterways, inviting community events, and scenic natural beauty that enrich everyday life.
Newport, where coastal living balances small-town ease with big-time access to outdoor recreation and jobs, sits along the Newport River a short drive from Morehead City in Carteret County. Weekend plans often start on the water—kayak at sunrise, cast for drum by afternoon—or head into the longleaf pines of Croatan National Forest for quiet trails and wildlife. The beaches and maritime history of Beaufort and the Crystal Coast are minutes away, with family favorites like Fort Macon State Park and the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores rounding out effortless day trips.
Community spirit runs deep here. The springtime Newport Pig Cookin' Contest brings crowds for barbecue, live music, and fundraising that benefits local causes. Schools are a strong point: Carteret County Public Schools serves the town, with students often zoned to well-regarded Croatan High School. Commuters appreciate the straight shot to Havelock and MCAS Cherry Point, while local employers in the nearby port city and marine trades keep opportunities close to home. Housing ranges from established neighborhoods shaded by pines to new builds near boat ramps and parks, making it easy to match lifestyle with budget.
Whether you’re buying your first coastal home or selling to start a new chapter, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local real estate agent who knows Newport inside and out.
