Imagine beginning your mornings with coffee on your welcoming front porch, greeting neighbors as they stroll by, then spending your evenings enjoying the peaceful green space just beyond your back porch. At 855 Pasteur Street, life moves at a pace that lets you truly appreciate the charm, history, and sense of community that make New Bern so special. Welcome to The 6 Sisters, a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of New Bern's most treasured historic homes. Built around 1923 in the aftermath of the Great Fire, these six nearly identical cottages represent resilience, craftsmanship, and the enduring character that defines one of North Carolina's most beloved historic towns. Known as ''#5,'' this charming home is the first of the 6 Sisters to be offered for sale. Situated on an oversized 25-foot-wide lot with an impressive 147-foot depth, the property provides outdoor space that is exceptionally rare this close to downtown. Inside, an inviting floor plan, three comfortable bedrooms, some original period details, wood-framed windows, and a classic gable metal roof blend timeless character with endless possibilities to make the home your own. Just minutes from the Downtown Historic District, you'll enjoy an unmatched lifestyle filled with locally owned restaurants, coffee shops, waterfront parks, festivals, art galleries, live music, and the rich history that has made New Bern a destination for generations. Whether you're taking an evening walk through the historic streets, biking to the riverfront, or meeting friends downtown, you'll love having it all just moments from your front door. This home will be sold as-is to owner-occupants only and will be protected by Historic Preservation Covenants held by the New Bern Preservation Foundation. Don't just buy a house, become the next steward of one of New Bern's most cherished landmarks and write the next chapter in the story of the 6 Sisters. This home will be sold as is and will be protected by a flexible Historic Preservation Covenant held by the New Bern Preservation Foundation.
