Property Description

Step into the rich tapestry of The Stanly-Bishop House, where history intertwines seamlessly with modern comfort. Nestled in the heart of a city steeped in legacy, this Federal-period gem invites you to embark on a journey through 225 years of architectural evolution. Preserving its historic charm while embracing contemporary updates, this residence offers a glimpse into the past while catering to present-day needs. From the dignified six-panel doors to the intricate moldings adorning each room, every detail speaks of the home's rich heritage. Recent improvements further enhance the living experience, ensuring a harmonious blend of old-world charm and modern convenience. Step into the comfort of new HVAC units installed in Aug. 2023, promising year-round comfort, while freshly sealed lower roof surfaces in October of the same year guarantee longevity. The interior of the 3rd floor apartment received a fresh coat of paint in Oct. 2023, revitalizing its ambiance (house is not described as a 3 story since this apt. space does not meet the definition of ''heated living area'' given the 7' height requirement). In the upstairs Master Bedroom, a zero-entry tiled shower, installed in 2022, offers a touch of luxury and accessibility. Discover convenience at every turn with new comfort height toilets installed throughout the residence in 2021. Other updates include the conversion of fireplaces, HVAC furnaces, and major appliances to natural gas, ensuring efficiency and sustainability (dual fuel stove). The kitchen stands as a testament to modern functionality, boasting butcher block and granite countertops (w/ an island). Meanwhile, the built-in Dining Room bookcase and coatrack at the rear door add both style and practicality. But, perhaps one of the most enticing features is the off-street parking, offering convenience in a historic setting. And with a second-floor laundry room and a 3rd floor apartment with a separate entrance, the possibilities are endless, whether you seek a cozy retreat or an income opportunity. Embrace the past, seize the present, and make history your own as you step into The Stanly-Bishop House. From its illustrious ownership to its modern comforts, this residence is more than just a homeit's a living testament to the enduring spirit of New Bern's legacy. ***House is next to train tracks and has activity maybe twice a day, if at all; no loud whistle, just a bell is rung. Also, a structural engineer inspected the foundation on 12/2/24 and, in summary, "...found that settlement is due to age...and...no recent movement is likely to have occurred."
