Welcome to 302 Plantation Drive, a stunning waterfront retreat tucked along the serene Inland Residential Harbour in the desirable River Bend community of New Bern. Offering approximately 3,000 square feet of living space, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home showcases an exceptional layout designed to maximize natural light, water views, and functionality. With a private boat dock in the backyard, this property invites you to enjoy the best of Eastern North Carolina's boating lifestyle. Enter inside to a welcoming foyer that leads to the formal living room, where soaring ceilings open to the second floor and a wall of windows offers a breathtaking view of the lush backyard and calm waterfront. The first floor hosts three bedrooms, including a potential second primary suite--perfect for multigenerational living or accommodating guests. One of the additional bedrooms is currently being used as an office, while the generous mudroom offers flexible space that's currently a home gym but could easily transition into a playroom, hobby area, or second office. Upstairs, the home's thoughtful design truly shines. A formal dining room lofts above the main living room, allowing light and views to flow freely between floors. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring stainless steel appliances, an island for prep and gathering, and sleek solid surface countertops. A second living room with a vaulted ceiling opens onto the upstairs balcony--ideal for enjoying morning coffee or evening sunsets. The primary suite is privately tucked away on the second floor and offers a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, its own private balcony, dual closets, and an elegant en suite bathroom complete with a walk-in shower and dual-sink vanity. Also upstairs is a dedicated office, complete with a large walk-in pantry or storage room attached--offering incredible convenience and organization. Located in River Bend, this home offers more than just waterfront living--it's a lifestyle.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
