About This Home

As of August 2026

Move-In Ready with Investment Upside -- Forest Park Charmer!
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in New Bern's Forest Park neighborhood, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is fresh, updated, and ready for its next chapter -- whether that's your forever home or your next short-term rental success story. With a proven Airbnb track record, this property is a turnkey opportunity for investors looking to step into cash flow from day one.
Step inside to fresh paint throughout and brand-new LVP flooring that flows seamlessly from the bright living area into the kitchen and dining space -- easy to maintain and easy on the eyes. The kitchen shines with stainless steel appliances, while custom blinds add a polished touch throughout the home.
Purchased and lovingly cared for by the current owners just over a year ago, every item from their original home inspection has already been addressed -- plus a brand-new water heater (Feb 2026) for extra peace of mind. That means less guesswork and more confidence for you at the closing table.
Out back, an extended patio sets the stage for morning coffee or evening entertaining, while a raised garden bed is ready for your green thumb. The fenced yard backs up to a partially wooded area, giving you privacy without sacrificing that cul-de-sac convenience.
Located just 10 minutes from downtown New Bern and neighboring the desirable Derby Park area, this home offers the best of both worlds: small-town charm and big-time potential. Want to skip the setup? All furniture and bedding are negotiable -- making this as close to plug-and-play as it gets for an investor or anyone craving a fresh start.
