Beautifully updated and lovingly maintained, this home invites you to slow down and savor life in Taberna--one of New Bern's most sought-after communities.Sunlight pours through generous windows, dancing across freshly painted walls and an open floor plan designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings. The welcoming living room, anchored by a cozy corner fireplace, feels like the heart of the home--a place where you can curl up with a book, host movie nights, or linger over conversation with friends.Just off the kitchen, a formal dining area offers an elegant setting for holidays, dinner parties, and everyday meals that feel just a little more special.

With lawn care fully handled by the HOA, you'll have more time to actually enjoy this beautiful setting instead of maintaining it.Just a short walk away, Taberna Country Club offers resort-style living with an 18-hole golf course, dining, tennis, and swimming. Within the neighborhood, you'll also find a catch-and-release pond, walking trails, a dog park, and a playground--amenities that make it easy to connect with nature, neighbors, and family.All of this comes with the convenience of being close to everything that makes New Bern special.
