Freshly updated and move-in ready, this well-maintained home offers an open, functional floor plan designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious layout provides excellent flow between living areas, while the primary suite is thoughtfully split from the secondary bedrooms, offering added privacy. A separate laundry room adds everyday convenience. Recent updates include new interior wall, door, and trim paint throughout, creating a bright and cohesive look. New carpet has been installed in the bedrooms and FROG, while the bathrooms feature new LVP flooring for durability and style. The home has also been professionally power washed, including the concrete driveway and sidewalk, giving the exterior a clean and refreshed appearance. Exterior enhancements include fresh paint on the shutters, front door and sidelights, decorative Fypon headers, and most of the metal trim, ultimately enhancing curb appeal. This property offers the advantage of no county taxes, while still enjoying the benefits of being within New Bern city limits, such as no city taxes, high-speed internet, and natural gas service. The home is equipped with a natural gas: forced-air furnace; water heater; and fireplace. The primary HOA amenity is an in-ground community pool, ideal for summer enjoyment. Ideally located between MCAS Cherry Point and downtown New Bern, the home provides convenient access to work, shopping, dining, and local attractions. As an added incentive, the seller is offering a $3, 500 ''use as you choose'' buyer credit with an acceptable offer, allowing flexibility toward closing costs, interest rate buy-downs, or other buyer needs. A strong value opportunity for buyers seeking comfort, efficiency, and location!
