Opportunity, space, and an unbeatable location come together in this well-built two-story home tucked into one of New Bern's most convenient and established neighborhoods. Just minutes from Historic Downtown New Bern, shopping, dining, medical facilities, and everyday conveniences, this property offers the kind of location buyers are always searching for, paired with almost 2,000 square feet of comfortable living space and endless potential to make it your own. Designed with a traditional floor plan, the home features multiple living areas that provide flexibility for everyday living, entertaining, hobbies, or a home office. The spacious kitchen offers two ovens, a pantry, and bar seating that opens to a room currently used as a formal dining area, complete with a wood burning fireplace and the versatility to serve as a cozy family room. From there, a bright sunroom overlooks the backyard and creates the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee, unwind with a book, or gather with friends before heading outside. Upstairs, all three bedrooms provide separation from the main living spaces, including a generous primary suite with two closets and a private bath featuring a walk-in shower. A convenient half bath is located on the main level for guests. Outside, the backyard is ready for your vision with an above-ground pool, an expansive deck, and plenty of room to create your own outdoor retreat. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone needing extra storage will appreciate the rare combination of an attached two-car garage plus a detached two-car garage with dedicated workshop space. A 2020 HVAC system adds peace of mind, while the home's solid layout offers an excellent foundation for cosmetic updates over time. If you've been searching for a home with great bones, exceptional space, and a location that's hard to beat, this is your chance to invest in a property where the possibilities are as exciting as the address.
