Inside, the main residence welcomes you with the timeless details that make historic homes so unforgettable, including original wood trim, rich hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and a beautifully refinished staircase that serves as a stunning focal point. Whether you're a growing family putting down roots or a professional seeking a home that blends elegance with everyday functionality, the layout offers the flexibility to fit your lifestyle beautifully. Gather with friends in the formal living and dining rooms, relax in the office/library that could easily serve as a first-floor primary bedroom, or enjoy the ease of modern living in the thoughtfully updated kitchen featuring abundant storage, inviting finishes, and a charming coffee bar perfect for slow mornings or busy days. Recent improvements have enhanced both functionality and comfort throughout the home. The primary bathroom has been extensively renovated with a new tub/shower, vanity, flooring, and the addition of a private toilet closet. A dedicated laundry room adds convenience to daily living while preserving the home's historic charm.
Upstairs, spacious bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, while the overall flow of the home makes it easy to imagine everything from holiday celebrations to quiet evenings at home. Outside, the private courtyard, fenced backyard, and garden space create room to entertain, play, unwind, and make lasting memories. Adding even more charm is the detached cottage--a truly delightful bonus space full of possibility. Perfect for visiting family, an inspiring art or writing studio, a private guest retreat, or even income-producing potential, this charming cottage enhances the property's unique appeal and lifestyle flexibility. Just minutes from downtown New Bern's waterfront, restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and cultural attractions, this home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy historic beauty, modern comfort, and a welcoming neighborhood setting all in one. It's the kind of place where life feels a little slower, a little sweeter, and deeply at home.
