About This Home
As of August 2025Positioned in a prime location just minutes from the heart of downtown New Bern, this unique property offers not one, but two residences on a single lot. The main two-story home features three bedrooms, one bathroom, a charming rocking chair front porch, some updated electrical, newer HVAC, and a carport for covered parking. Inside, it has been freshly painted and thoughtfully refreshed, with plumbing updates completed and insulation added to portions of the exterior walls. The exterior has seen major improvements as well, including updates to the roof, new fascia board, repaired window seals, wood rot repairs, and a full exterior paint job—boosting both curb appeal and longevity. Tucked privately at the rear of the property, the separate studio unit includes its own utility meter and has been upgraded with a new mini-split HVAC system within the past two years—ideal for guests, extended family, or flexible living space. With a solid rental history, tasteful updates, and true move-in-ready condition, this property offers both value and versatility. Located near the Stanley White Recreation Center, medical facilities, local parks, shopping, and dining, you'll love the convenience and community feel this neighborhood offers. Whether you're looking to live in one unit and rent the other, or simply enjoy extra space, this downtown gem is ready for its next chapter.
