About this home

Looking for your next project? This craftsman fixer has all the original details that will make this project a beautiful finished home. A formal dining room and the most beautiful leaded windows I've seen. Built in 1926, this charming bungalow is ready for a complete renovation, but with the right vision it could be exactly what you are looking for. The main level features two bedrooms and one bath. One of the rooms is designated as a den; however, could be a second bedroom. The second floor has three additional rooms with heating and cooling and a full bath; however, due to ceiling height being 2 inches under 7 ft, this area is not included in the livable square footage, but still adds value to the overall home. Please refer to the floorplan for details. Situated on a corner lot in New Bern's Historic Ghent neighborhood, the home offers sidewalks and easy access to all with the YMCA just two blocks away. This is a rare opportunity to restore a charming historic craftsman home and make it your own. Explore rehab mortgages for lending options. AGENTS PLEASE SEE REMARKS.
