The Beautiful New Bern, NC  waterfront

The picture shown above is where the Trent and Neuse Rivers converge. The Neuse River widens out at this point and eventually becomes the widest river in the United states. New Bern is encircled by rivers and deep navigable creeks. Combine this with a close proximity to the Pamlico Sound and the inter-coastal waterway, and the reasons are apparent why sailors and power boaters from around the country are making New Bern their final destination. Boaters, sailors, and fisherman from as far away as California are moving to the New Bern  and Oriental to enjoy the natural beauty and serenity of the Neuse River  and all it's tributaries.

Click below, and use the controls on the left side of the map and you can zoom  out, to see the rivers, creeks, and other waterways in the in the vicinity of New Bern.

The Neuse River is the widest river in the United States and is a haven for sailing, fishing, and power boating. With 2 big rivers, miles of deep creeks, a mild climate, and reasonable property taxes it's no wonder that we are seeing retiree's moving to New Bern from as far away as Florida and California.

Waterfront communities on the Neuse in and around New Bern, N.C. include Riverside, historic downtown New Bern, Bridgeton, James City, Old Cherry Point Road, Riverbluff, Neuse Harbor, Carolina Pines, and the Harlow area. Neuse River waterfront communities in Pamlico County include Minnesot Beach and Oriental. For more info on the Neuse River Click here

Fun on the Trent  River in New Bern NC

The Trent River, while not as majestic as the Neuse, is better protected from storms and high winds. With deep water near much of the shore line it makes a better choice for those wanting to dock a boat in their back yard. The calmer waters make recreational boating a favorite pastime. Most any sunny day will bring out the water skiers, boogie boarders,  jet skiers and fishermen.

Waterfront communities in the New Bern N.C. area on the Trent River include Riverbend, Trent Woods, Old Towne, Madame Moore Lane, and the Brices Creek area.

New Bern N.C. has numerous waterfront communities. Below are listed a few. For more detailed information send me an email at Tyson@Century21.com and let me know what you are interested in

 

Riverbend Marina and Restaurant

Riverbend

Riverbend is an incorporated Town located about 10 minutes from midtown New Bern.

In Riverbend you will find around 70 water front homes on the Trent River and perhaps 100 waterfront homes on the canal. Most of the homes on the river are on large lots and many have deep water near the shores edge allowing you to keep large boats in your back yard. Home prices on the Trent River start around $475,000.00

The Riverbend Canal was formed by cutting a canel from the Trent River into the town of Riverbend. The canal is about 1 mile long and 5 to 6 feet deep. Near the end of the canal is the recently built Riverbend Marina.

Homes on the Riverbend Canal are relatively inexpensive compared to other waterfront properties in the area. This area can be a good choice for those that want to stay in the $275,000-$400,000 price range and live on relatively deep, protected water.

Whether you are looking for a waterfront home or just a great place to call home, Riverbend offers water access, fishing, golf, tennis, swimming, biking, and walking.

Call or email the Tyson Group today to learn more about Riverbend.

 

 

Fairfield Harbour

This New Bern waterfront community has 4 marinas

Fairfield Harbour is located about 20 minutes from New Bern by land or by boat via the Neuse River. This development was started by my Uncle Joe Gualtney who had a bold vision of creating a new waterfront and golfing community in the New Bern area. The marina shown above is one of four within the community.

The water frontage was created by digging a series of canals starting at Northwest Creek. The main canal begins about 400 yards from the mouth of Northwest Creek, a picturesque deep creek that drains into the Neuse River. The Neuse River is 2-3 miles wide at this point making it especially attractive to sailors as you are in big water as soon as you leave the Harbour.

It is about a 3 hour boat ride from Fairfield Harbour to Ocrakoke Island, which is always rated one of the top two beaches on the East Coast. There are several hundred waterfront homes in Fairfield Harbour but only a few waterfront lots still for sale. Waterfront homes start around $400,000.00.

Fairfield Harbour offers boating, sailing, fishing, golf, biking, walking, and tennis at very affordable prices. Home prices on interior lots start around $200,000.00. Click here for information on fishing and boating in Fairfield Harbour.

 

Neuse Harbour

Neuse Harbour is in the background

Neuse Harbour, shown above, is located about 12 miles from New Bern, 8 miles  from Havelock, and 22 miles from the Crystal Coast Beaches of Eastern North Carolina. This makes for a convenient location for those that work at Cherry Point Marine Air Station. For those that enjoy salt water fishing but do not want to live in a coastal county it is a relatively short drive from Neuse Harbour to the ocean.

Because the water is shallow on this side of the river you will not see any large boats docked here. The  breath taking views of the Neuse River, which is around 3 miles wide at this point, are the attraction

Home prices range from $230,000 for interior homes to over a million for the larger waterfront homes so there is quite a wide selection to choose from. Neuse Harbour is located outside the city limits so only county taxes are applicable.

 

Stately Pines

Stately Pines has reasonably priced waterfront homes.

Located on the Neuse River just past Neuse Harbour Stately Pines offers affordable homes on interior lots as well as reasonably priced waterfront homes.

The Neuse River is several miles wide at this point with wonderful views, however you will not see any large boats docked in this area as the river is shallow and would require you to go out  several hundred yards from the shore to dock a boat with 3 feet of draft.

Interior home prices range start around $200,000.00  and waterfront starting around $550,000.00.

Carolina Pines

Carolina Pines offers waterfront and golf front homes for sale

The picture above shows the mighty Neuse River. This picture was shot in the back yard of a house we recently sold in Carolina Pines. The river is some 3 miles wide at this point. The whitecaps you see are the result of a 20 mph wind coming out of the north which makes for an exciting day on the water for sailors.

Carolina Pines is located about 5 miles from Havelock and around 15 miles from New Bern. Carolina Pines has a 18 hole golf course, a nice tract and it is a real bargain to play there. For more information on the golf membership Click Here

Carolina Pines offers affordable homes and convenience for those looking to be near the base or within a 20 minute to the beaches or New Bern. Home prices in Carolina Pines range from $150,000 for an interior  home to $700,000 for a newer home on the water.

Tucker Creek has a limited amount of waterfront homes

Tucker Creek

Tucker Creek is located just a few miles from the back gate of Cherry Point Marine Air Station making it a popular area for military families and civilian employees. Tucker Creek is accessible by a community boat launch which enables you launch a small power boat and make your way to the Neuse River. There are a limited amount of homes in Tucker Creek that have enough water depth to allow for a dock to accommodate a small motor boat.

Tucker Creek Middle School is Craven Counties newest middle school and is located within the subdivision which makes it convenient for those with middle school aged children.

Home prices range from $135,000.00 for a 1400 sq.ft. town home to $300,000.00 for a single family home on the creek.

Brices Creek

 Brice's Creek lies on the south side of the Trent River. This area is bordered by the 150,000 acre Croatan National Forest,  Click Here for info on Croatan.

 Brices Creek is a picturesque deep creek that originates in the Croatan Forrest and flows through Carolina Colors and Taberna before making its way into the Trent River. This area is a popular choice for waterfront because of its close proximity to downtown New Bern, good school system, deep protected water, and  easy access to Highway 70 E.

This area does not work as well for sailors due to a bridge that limits boats to a clearance of around 15'. However motor yachts without fly bridges can take advantage of the deep and protected waters.

Home prices range from $400,000-$600,000 and usually do not stay on the market long.

Madame Moore Lane

Madame Moore Lane is located on the Trent River across the river from downtown New Bern. Many love the convenience of living here as you can boat to downtown or take a short 5 minute car ride. The water is relatively deep in this part of the river and allow larger boats to be parked behind ones house.

Home prices start around $575,000 for an older home on Madame Moore Lane. Its hard to beat the convenience of Madame Moore Lane.

Bridgepointe

Located within a five minute boat ride or a five minute car ride from historic downtown New Bern, Bridgepointe offers convenience, incredible views, and splendid new and nearly new custom homes.

Bridgepointe is within a short drive by water or land.

Located on the Trent River Bridgepointe has approximately 25 home sites of which around 8 are waterfront. The deep and somewhat protected waters of the Trent River make boating, skiing, and tubing a great way to spend a lazy summer day.

Interior homes in this much desired area begin around $500,000.00. Waterfront homes begin around $990,000.00. Re-sales rarely are available so you need to be ready to buy when one comes on the market.

 

Olde Towne

Deep and protected from storms make Old Towne waterfront homes popular amoung marinars.

Just minutes from historic downtown New Bern, Old Towne is a  much desired area to live.

Much of the waterfront was created with the digging out of several large inland lakes, which were later connected to the Trent River via a canal that is deep enough and wide enough to accommodate most any size boat.

In addition to the single story homes on the canal, Old Towne also offers condo's, pictured below, with fantastic views on the Trent River and access to a boat slip.

Olde Towne condo's have a fantastic view of the Trent River and is a short distance to downtown New Bern.

Because of the convenience to schools, church's, and shopping, Olde Towne is popular to both retirees and working families.

Home prices begin around $350,000 for interior homes and waterfront will begin around $599,000.
