Walkable to Downtown!

Experience the historic charm of downtown New Bern from this 2 bedroom 1940's renovated cottage walkable to Tryon Palace and everything downtown New Bern has to offer! Two marked parking spots available onsite with free overflow parking available on Queen St.

Welcome to our charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage walkable to downtown New Bern. Onsite parking is limited. The 4 marked parking spaces in the driveway are shared by the two homes in the back. Please limit parking to two cars in marked spaces. Overflow parking is available around the corner on Queen Street by the beautiful Cedar Grove Cemetery.

Our house is located in a vibrant, historic area with a lot of character. One of our neighboring properties is currently unoccupied and awaiting some TLC, adding to the unique, eclectic atmosphere of the neighborhood. While it may appear a bit rough around the edges, rest assured our home is well-maintained and fully equipped to provide you with a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

PARKING
Guest parking spots are marked on the driveway. Please limit cars in marked spots to two vehicles, as these four spots are shared by both back houses. Overflow parking is available on Queen Street in front of Cedar Grove Cemetery. DO NOT PARK IN UNMARKED AREAS AS YOU WILL BLOCK THE NEIGHBORS! The neighbors are permanent residents and we aim to not make daily life hard for them!

THE SPACE
A generous 1095 square feet, our cottage boasts two bedrooms each with Queen beds and TVs, two full bathrooms, an upstairs balcony, downstairs front patio, and back patio with dining furniture and a grill!

KITCHEN
The fully-equipped kitchen offers all the necessary appliances and utensils for a seamless cooking experience, including a dishwasher. Savor your choice of drip coffee or Keurig. We provide coffee, creamer, and sweeteners.

PRIMARY BEDROOM
Bedroom 1 features a comfortable queen size bed, wall-mounted Roku TV, luggage rack and closet. Step out the front door to enjoy the upstairs front patio.

BEDROOM 2
Bedroom 2 also features a comfortable queen size bed, Roku TV, luggage rack, and closet.

BATHROOMS
Both bathrooms are upstairs. Enjoy a walk-in shower in one, and a soaker tub in the other.

We were able to work to town to take the Trolley Tour, to go shopping, and to go to dinner. House was clean. Used the grill outside on the patio and ate our dinner there as well.
