Property Description
Discover this classic 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom brick ranch in a highly convenient New Bern location. Built in 1965, this is a solid, sturdy house situated on a generous 0.583-acre lot featuring mature trees and a fenced backyard. Inside, the home offers a functional layout with LVP flooring throughout the main living areas and tile in the bathrooms. The large living room is a comfortable space, featuring a brick fireplace with gas logs flanked by built-in shelving.

This home offers excellent potential and is ready for its next chapter!
