About This Home

As of May 2025

A fantastic opportunity awaits you at The Kezziah Sawyer House, located in the heart of the Downtown New Bern! This charming property sits on a .31-acre lot, offering a rare combination of off-street parking and a spacious rear yard, making it an exceptional find in this sought-after area. Currently divided into three rental units, this home presents both a great primary residence option and an attractive investment opportunity. The units consist of:
•First-floor apartment: 2 bedrooms, $1600/month (utilities included) - currently leased to a month-to-month tenant.
•Second-floor apartment: Spacious and bright, $1400/month (utilities included).
•Second-floor efficiency: Cozy and affordable, $500/month (utilities included). These rents are reflective of the current market, providing an immediate income stream for new owners. Step outside and enjoy the property's outdoor living spaces. Relax on the front porch as you watch the activity of the neighborhood, or retreat to the rear brick patio for a grill session. For quiet moments, unwind in the screened porch, the perfect spot to read a book or enjoy a peaceful afternoon.
In addition to these desirable features, you'll appreciate being just a short walk from all that downtown has to offer - shopping, restaurants, the theater, history center, farmers market, and the waterfront. Whether you're looking for a comfortable home with rental income or a property to add to your investment portfolio, The Kezziah Sawyer House is a must-see. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history in a prime location!
