Situated on a spacious lot bordering the River Bend Golf Course, this beautifully updated brick-front residence pairs effortless single-level living with exceptional indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces.

A charming covered porch guides you through the front entrance into a bright, open-concept great room, where high vaulted ceilings, modern finishes, and a cozy gas log fireplace create an inviting centerpiece. The central gathering hub flows smoothly into a dedicated dining area and a pristine kitchen equipped with gleaming granite countertops, a functional central island, crisp cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and gas cooking.

Tucked along the main hallway, the serene primary bedroom suite serves as a quiet retreat featuring soft carpeting, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like full bathroom with a modern glass and tile walk-in shower, a dual stone vanity, and rich cabinetry. Two secondary main-level bedrooms also feature cozy carpet and share a stylish full central bath. A dedicated laundry room complete with a water softener adds practical daily ease while providing direct interior connection to the attached two-car garage that offers an expansive walk-in storage space above it.

Beyond the main living area, glass doors transition outward to a peaceful screened-in porch and an adjoining open-air deck with a dedicated gas grill hookup perfect for hosting outdoor gatherings overlooking the lush, wood-fenced backyard. Meticulously maintained and updated throughout, this move-in-ready home offers seamless comfort inside and out.

Ideally located in River Bend, this residence enjoys quick access to the River Bend Country Club while remaining just minutes from historic downtown New Bern's vibrant boutique shops, waterfront dining, and premier medical facilities, while being an easy commute to MCAS Cherry Point and the sun-soaked Crystal Coast beaches.
