    BEST VALUE WATERFRONT HOME IN NEW BERN!!! Ready for its next chapter, this stunning waterfront home captures the essence of coastal living in the peaceful Inland Residential Harbour of River Bend. Recently refreshed with updated carpet in the primary bedroom and a repaved driveway, the property offers nearly 3,100 square feet of light-filled living space designed to embrace the beauty of life on the water. From the moment you enter, expansive windows draw your attention straight to the sparkling harbor views beyond. The dramatic living room features soaring ceilings and a striking wall of glass that fills the home with natural light while creating a seamless connection to the waterfront setting. The open layout on the second floor flows effortlessly between the living, dining, and kitchen areas, making it ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. The kitchen is both functional and inviting, complete with stainless steel appliances, solid-surface countertops, and a central island perfect for gathering over coffee or preparing meals while still enjoying the view. Just beyond, a private balcony offers a peaceful vantage point to watch boats glide across the harbor and sunsets reflect across the water. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, balcony access, and an en suite bath featuring dual vanities and a spacious walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms on the first floor provide flexibility for guests, workspace, or hobbies, while the generous mudroom can easily serve as a fitness area, studio, or additional storage space. Outside, a private dock invites you to fully embrace waterfront living--whether launching a kayak, setting out for a day on the boat, or simply relaxing as the harbor breeze rolls in. With thoughtful updates, abundant natural light, and sweeping water views, this River Bend waterfront property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Eastern North Carolina's coastal lifestyle.
