234 River Bend Road · Jacksonville, NC 28540
Welcome to 234 Riverbend Rd, a beautifully updated property offering space, flexibility, and built-in income potential on more than 2 acres just outside the city limits with no HOA. The property includes a 4-bedroom, 3-bath main home, with a mother-in-law suite with private access (above the partially finished attached garage), and a finished heated space above the detached 4-car tandem garage, making it ideal for multi-generational living, or guests.
The 2,889 sq. ft. main home has been thoughtfully renovated and features an office, bonus room, sunlit sitting room, and a partially finished attached 2-car garage currently used as a photography studio. Vaulted ceilings, updated lighting, fresh paint, wood accents, new flooring, and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace wall create a warm, inviting living space.

A long-term tenant currently pays $1,200 per month and would like to remain, providing immediate rental income, but is not required.
