Welcome to the River Bend Community in New Bern, NC
Cash only This fixer-upper home sits on a spacious corner lot and is full of potential for the right buyer to bring their vision to life. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the property offers a solid layout and plenty of opportunity to create something truly special.
The home was previously connected to a private well, which is currently not operational. However, the tap fee has already been paid, and a water meter is in place--ready for connection to the community water system by a licensed plumber.
A complete home inspection is available for review, providing valuable insight into the property's condition. Please use caution when visiting--the deck requires repair and should not be walked on.
Additional features include a spacious backyard with a great storage shed, offering extra utility and potential for outdoor use.
Please note: the HVAC system is not currently working and will need replacement.
Whether you're an investor, renovator, or buyer looking to customize a home to your taste, this property presents a fantastic opportunity in the desirable River Bend community.
