Description

Located in one of North Carolina's most charming and walkable historic districts, the listed contributing Thomas J Turner home c. 1893-95 exudes classic elegance with it's grand entrance foyer, staircase and gorgeous ceilings. Step into the living room - timeless and classic, it provides so much space to relax and entertain and is perfectly centered around the fireplace. Many recent updates combine function and flow with tasteful modern upgrades including a 2024 new, state-of-the-art kitchen designed for today's lifestyle. Custom cabinetry, butcherblock countertops, high-end appliances and designer lighting elevate the heart of the home without compromising its original character, perfect for today's lifestyle. The primary suite with its attached dressing or reading room and 2024 bathroom addition provides a true retreat. Bedroom two and three are generous in size. Let me tell you about the attic! It is huge, you can stand in it and it's floored and is beautifully lit when light comes through the stained glass. Architectural details abound outside and there is a rather rare, beautifully preserved Neo Georgian balcony. The generous front porch is perfect for morning coffee or gathering with friends and neighbors. Zoned C5A and is not in a special flood zone. Thomas Turner was a prosperous furniture merchant in the New Bern downtown. Turner later became the well recognized Turner-Tolson still in business today. In an article in The Daily Journal- New Bern dated August 26, 1892, it mentions the house is nearing completion. A contributing property, it is listed on the National Register qualifying for NC preservation tax credits on approved projects.
