Listed by The Donna and Team New Bern of Keller Williams Realty
Own a piece of living New Bern history AND a fully thriving hospitality business, all in one storied address. This circa 1882 Italianate Victorian, known historically as the Street-Ward Residence, anchors Downtown New Bern's Historic District as a fully operating bed & breakfast, sold turnkey and fully furnished with custom, hand-selected pieces throughout. Past hosted guests include the son of Pepsi-Cola inventor Caleb Bradham, a cousin of the Wright Brothers, a state senator, and WWII servicemen. Original 1882 details remain intact, from hardwood floors to three-sided bay windows with ornate pediment hoods and a grand staircase with hand-turned newels and sawn brackets. Showcase lighting highlights the craftsmanship, and a curved Juliet staircase offers a balcony view over Pollock Street. Seven private guest suites each carry their own distinct personality, from moody coastal blues with hand-turned four-poster canopy beds to soft, garden-inspired florals, each individually decorated with its own private en-suite bath. Gather in the dining room beneath an original crystal chandelier for a hot breakfast served daily, or unwind in the living room warmed by a custom hand crafted chandelier and fireplace. A 24-hour self-service coffee and snack room keeps hospitality flowing, alongside a commercial-style kitchen with private innkeeper's quarters just off it. Outside, a large brick-paved patio shaded by mature trees and anchored by a stone fire pit beneath a custom pergola sets the scene for golden-hour cocktail hours, leisurely brunches, or intimate garden gatherings. Private parking behind the inn adds everyday convenience, and laundry upstairs and downstairs, plus attic and basement storage, keep operations seamless. Set in beautiful Downtown New Bern, guests can leave the car behind, with Tryon Palace, the waterfront, and downtown's restaurants and boutiques moments away. This is a rare, turnkey invitation to timeless elegance and a lifestyle rooted in history.
