Overview

Located in New Bern's sought-after Riverside Historic District, the Lloyd-Kennedy House (circa 1912) is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This beautifully preserved home blends architectural character with thoughtful modern updates, offering the best of both worlds.

These historic details are complemented by carefully remodeled kitchen and bathrooms designed for modern functionality and comfort.

Additional living space extends outdoors with a screened-in porch featuring a ceiling fan, ideal for enjoying the seasons. The backyard is ideal for relaxing and entertaining with it's large deck, flagstone patio, and outdoor brick pizza oven and fireplace. A shed with electricity offers flexible storage or workshop space, while the basement provides additional storage options.
