Over 3,000 square feet of living space, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with multiple flex spaces is beautifully set on a quiet cul-de-sac in New Bern's premier golf course community of Taberna. From the welcoming rocking chair front porch to fairway views out back, it's the kind of home that makes every day feel special. Inside, a soaring cathedral-ceiling formal living room greets you to the left of the foyer, while a flexible dining room or office sits to the right. Both spaces offer incredible versatility—whether you're envisioning a music room, library, playroom, or a dedicated work-from-home setup, you'll have the freedom to tailor the layout to fit your lifestyle. Hardwood floors flow through much of the main level, leading into an open living room with a cozy fireplace and tall ceilings that reach the second floor. The kitchen shines with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, generous cabinet storage, and a sunny breakfast nook. Head out back to a screened porch and deck designed for relaxing or entertaining while overlooking the golf course. The first-floor primary suite is a true retreat, complete with dual closets and a spa-like bath featuring a jetted tub and walk-in shower. Upstairs offers two spacious guest bedrooms, a guest bath with a large sauna, and a versatile office/flex space with its own private balcony overlooking the golf course. Key upgrades include a 2018 roof, 2022 heat pump, 2012 gas pack, and 2025 water heater, giving peace of mind for years to come. Plenty of storage awaits with a walk-in attic, plus a two-car garage and a third bay perfect for a golf cart. Life in Taberna means more than just a home—it's a lifestyle. This sought-after community offers a championship golf course, clubhouse, tennis, pickleball, and walking trails, all while being just minutes from downtown New Bern, MCAS Cherry Point, and a short drive to the Crystal Coast.

For the R-8 residential district, in promoting the general purposes of this ordinance, the specific intent of this district is: (a) To encourage the continued use of the land for residential purposes; (b) To prohibit commercial and industrial use of the land and to prohibit any other use which would substantially interfere with development or continuation of residential uses in the district.; (c) To encourage the discontinuance of existing uses that would not be permitted as new uses in this district.; (d )To discourage any use which would generate traffic on minor streets other than normal traffic to serve residences on those streets.; and (e) To discourage any use which because of its character or size would create requirements and costs for public services such as police and fire protection, water supply and sewerage, substantially in excess of such requirements and costs if the district were developed solely for residential purposes.
