Property Description
There is a quiet confidence here--the kind you feel before you fully take in the view. Light moves differently, reflections stretch endlessly across the Neuse River, and every detail has been curated to feel both effortless and unforgettable. This is Refined Luxury expressed through Subtle Elegance, anchored by the rare offering of Deeded Navigable Waterfront. Set along approximately 100 feet of sandy shoreline on the Neuse River, this .74-acre homesite pairs natural beauty with thoughtful design. The setting invites a lifestyle shaped by the water--boating, kayaking, or simply watching the rhythm of the river unfold--while elevated construction outside of the flood zone and a raised concrete slab foundation provide lasting confidence with ease of ownership. Inside, 3,700 square feet of fully renovated living space unfolds with intention. Natural light pours through all-new windows, doors and skylights, illuminating the Coastal Oak engineered hardwood floors while drawing the eye outward to sweeping water views. The home lives both open and intimate, designed to accommodate gathering and retreat in equal measure. At its core, the kitchen and living spaces create a striking visual and functional centerpiece. A double-sided, see-through fireplace connects the rooms, offering warmth and ambiance without interrupting the flow. The kitchen itself is a study in craftsmanship--featuring sleek Downsview European cabinetry, warm walnut shelving and countertops, and a carefully selected suite of appliances including a Thermador professional range, Sub-Zero integrated refrigeration drawers, Bosch dishwasher, and a recessed Zephyr hood that preserves uninterrupted sightlines to the water. Throughout the home, dramatic high ceilings plus solid walnut doors add depth and distinction, complemented by curated lighting to include raw brass light sconces fixtures and matching vintage Italian Murano Felici Glass chandeliers which elevate each space without overwhelming it. The first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat, where spa-inspired elements--such as a copper soaking tub, floating lacquer vanities with copper sinks, and an elegant porcelain-tiled walk-in shower--create a calming, peaceful atmosphere. Function meets performance as the home is equipped with dual geothermal HVAC systems each with Aprilaire filtration systems, multi-zone ECO Bee smart thermostats, a Rinnai on-demand water heater, and upgraded insulation throughout the whole, all for unmatched energy efficiency that translates into an average electric bill of $95/month. Durable exterior materials include Certainteed 200+mph rated polymer shake siding and Miami-Dade Rated shingles with a 60mil adhesive roof underlayment to reinforce the roofing system--each contributing to long-term comfort and peace of mind. Outdoors, expansive entertaining areas frame the river as the main attraction and allows space to enjoy the wonderful North Carolina weather. The sandy shoreline, mature landscaping, and open sky create a setting equally suited for quiet mornings or lively evenings. A three-car garage and circular drive add convenience to the experience. Located in one of Historic New Bern's established waterfront communities, this property offers a rare balance of privacy, presence, and proximity to coastal amenities, historic charm, and everyday conveniences. With No HOA and No City Taxes, create the lifestyle of your dreams. This is not simply a waterfront home--it is a composed, intentional living experience where design, setting, and craftsmanship align.
