Looking for your next project? This craftsman fixer has all the original details that will make this project a beautiful finished home. A formal dining room and the most beautiful leaded windows I've seen.

One of the rooms is designated as a den; however, could be a second bedroom. Over the years, the attic was converted into additional rooms with heating and cooling and full bath; however, due to ceiling height, this area is not included in the livable square footage but still has value as there are three additional rooms. Please refer to the floorplan for details. Situated on a corner lot in New Bern's Historic Ghent neighborhood, the home offers sidewalks and easy access to all and the YMCA just two blocks away. This is a rare opportunity to restore a charming historic home and make it your own.
