513 Lilliput Drive, New Bern

Imagine starting every morning with quiet water views right from your back deck. This waterfront home offers a rare combination of custom craftsman details, multi-generational living options, and thoughtful accessibility upgrades built to last. Step inside the sunlit foyer leading into a grand living room defined by soaring 18-foot vaulted ceilings, rich teak hardwood floors, and a brick gas fireplace. The updated kitchen features smooth quartz countertops, clean contemporary cabinets with soft-close drawers, a custom tile backsplash, and a pantry with pull-out shelves. A bright dining area sits right next door, framed by large bay windows that fill the space with warm natural light. The versatile layout offers three private bedroom spaces, including a main primary suite and a second primary-style bedroom suite, while the official county septic permit is rated for two bedrooms. The main suite includes a cedar-lined walk-in closet, a skylight, and a spacious bathroom designed with full wheelchair accessibility, complete with custom marble tile and lower vanity counters. Upstairs, a spiral staircase leads to an open loft that works perfectly as a private home office or extra lounge area. Outdoors, enjoy coastal breezes from the composite deck, relax in the shade of the gazebo, or head down to your private waterfront. The property includes a seawall, deep-water dock access, and a large standalone workshop equipped with power, a dedicated air conditioning unit, and a dry lower basement area for extra storage. Major mechanical updates, including dual tankless water heaters, a raised crawlspace for added protection, updated siding, and new energy-efficient windows, provide long-term comfort and peace of mind.
