Property Description
Cozy living and two spacious detached buildings define this country cottage, nestled in a peaceful Cove City setting. A classic covered front porch introduces the residence, leading into a light-filled open-concept living room and dining area that exudes warmth and comfort. Polished flooring stretches across this inviting central space, flowing seamlessly into a streamlined kitchen equipped with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an efficient layout designed for effortless culinary preparation. Situated at the rear of the home, two well-appointed bedrooms offer privacy and convenience with a full bathroom between them. Maximizing the home's appeal, a bright, enclosed porch leads directly to a substantial uncovered back deck, creating the ideal private setting for entertaining or simply relaxing overlooking the fenced, lush yard. Beyond the main residence, the property stands out with its incredible detached structures. A large, dedicated workshop offers an ideal space for specialized projects, while a separate attached shed provides abundant organization for equipment and outdoor gear. This charming countryside retreat offers the perfect balance of quiet, open-space living while maintaining easy local access. Enjoy a tranquil lifestyle that remains just a short commute from the historic, vibrant lifestyle of downtown New Bern, local riverfront dining, boutique shopping, and regional military facilities.
