Enjoy beautiful sunsets and watch the sailboats come and go to the Neuse from one of the three balconies in this updated 3BR/3BA townhome. This quiet community on the marina is filled with walking trails and lakes so you can experience birdwatching, deer crossings, fishing and turtle ponds. In just a short 2 minute walk, you can enjoy access to indoor and outdoor pools, bike and kayak rentals, mini golf, tennis and basketball--all available at the nearby club. For the golfers, you can book a tee time at the Harbour Pointe Golf Club--5 minutes away!
You can stay in and enjoy the community, or drive 10 minutes to historic New Bern--a city dating back to 1710 and the first capital of North Carolina. Tour Tryon Palace, originally call Governor's Palace, which was the official residence and administrative headquarters of the British governors of North Carolina from 1770 to 1775. Or sample some Brad's Drink (aka Pepsi) at the birthplace of Pepsi founded by a local pharmacist Caleb Bradham in 1898.
