Privacy. Space. A workshop. A piece of Eastern North Carolina history. If that's been on your wish list, you've just found it.
Nestled on over 1.3 acres surrounded by farmland and mature pecan trees, this inviting 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers the kind of peaceful country setting that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Whether you're looking for room to garden, space for your hobbies, or simply a place where you won't feel crowded by neighbors, this property delivers.
Originally built nearly 76 years ago, the home has been thoughtfully remodeled over the years, blending its original character with updates for today's lifestyle. Inside, you'll find a spacious living area, a functional kitchen with a breakfast bar, newer stainless steel appliances, and comfortable living spaces ready to make your own. A durable metal roof adds lasting value and peace of mind.
The real bonus is outside. A large detached two-car garage/workshop provides exceptional space for projects, woodworking, mechanics, storage, or a home business. An authentic old tobacco pack house adds character and versatility, offering endless possibilities for additional storage, a workshop, hobby space, or preserving a unique piece of Eastern North Carolina's agricultural heritage.
Imagine evenings under the shade of the pecan trees, plenty of room for pets to roam, a large garden, parking for your boat or RV, and the quiet that only country living can provide. Yet you'll still enjoy the convenience of being just a short drive to both Greenville and New Bern.
If you've been searching for a property that offers privacy, room to spread out, and outbuildings that are actually useful, this one deserves a spot at the top of your list.
