Tucked away in the quiet countryside of Ernul, NC, 205 Hudnell Road offers a rare opportunity to embrace a laid-back, rural lifestyle on nearly 28 acres of unrestricted land—made up of three adjoining parcels included in the sale. Whether you're dreaming of a sprawling homestead, hobby farm, hunting retreat, or simply a peaceful escape from the pace of city life, this property offers space, privacy, and potential in equal measure. The home itself features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and just over 1,900 square feet of space ready for your vision. Enter inside from the covered front porch into a traditional floor plan with a formal living room that flows into a spacious kitchen, open to a large den with a distinctive gas log fireplace wrapped in classic brickwork. A formal dining room with built-in cabinetry provides a charming space for hosting and storage, while the primary bedroom includes an en suite bath with a walk-in shower. Outside, two detached workshops offer endless possibilities—use them for equipment storage, creative space, or future expansion. The land itself is a blank canvas with room for gardens, livestock, trails, or anything you can imagine. It's the kind of place where you can wake up to birdsong, spend your afternoons under wide Carolina skies, and end the day watching sunsets from your porch. Although the home needs some love and is being sold as is, the value lies in the land, the lifestyle, and the freedom to create something truly your own. Just a short drive to New Bern and within reach of the coast, this is country living with convenience—and the chance to bring your rural dreams to life. Contact us today for your private showing!
