Property Details

The Charles O.H. Boyd House is a ca. 1920 Bungalow-style gem located in the heart of the Historic District. This charming and meticulously maintained home offers the convenience of one-level living. A deep, wide front porch, perfect for reading, entertaining, or bird watching, welcomes you inside, where original wood floors, high ceilings, crown molding, and plaster walls blend historic charm with modern updates. Sunlight pours through large, well-positioned windows, illuminating the beautifully remodeled chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, built-in cabinets, and abundant storage. Extensive electrical and plumbing upgrades, a 2017 standing seam metal roof, R38 attic insulation, and a 2018 Carrier natural gas heating system with updated ductwork add to its appeal. The 550 sq. ft. basement features a concrete floor, built-in storage, a 2019 Kinetico water filtration system, and an on-demand hot water heater. A separate 180 sq. ft. climate-controlled building offers endless possibilities for a workshop or storage. The professionally landscaped yard includes an irrigation system, patio, and space for container gardening and outdoor dining. Move-in ready, this home is featured on page 346 of Peter B. Sandbeck's Renowned Historic Homes of New Bern.
