More than meets the eye, this all-brick 3-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a spacious .44-acre lot in the heart of New Bern, offering a rare combination of convenience, character, and natural beauty.
From the moment you arrive, the home's inviting curb appeal stands out, highlighted by a beautiful mature dogwood tree and thoughtfully maintained landscaping. Inside, the home is clean, fresh, and move-in ready with hardwood floors throughout the living room and bedrooms, tile in the kitchen and bathroom, and a bright bay window in the living room that fills the space with natural light. The kitchen was updated in 2020 with newer appliances and offers functional workspace along with a unique antique piece converted into a functional sink with added storage. The bathroom was completely remodeled in 2020 and features a subway tile shower along with updated fixtures and finishes.
Step outside and discover what truly makes this property special. The backyard is a true garden oasis, featuring 50+ year established azaleas surrounding most of the space, a large gardenia bush, and mature landscaping that creates a naturally enclosed feel. Several fruit trees are being established, and a raised garden bed is already producing tomatoes and lettuce. Bird feeders have long attracted a variety of birds, adding to the peaceful, nature-filled setting. A concrete patio with firepit, covered side porch, and powered storage room provide ideal spaces to relax or entertain. Enjoy sunrises from the backyard and sunsets from the front of the home.
