Nestled in the heart of New Bern's renowned downtown historic district, the Benjamin Ellis House is a beautifully preserved and fully operational historic inn offering timeless elegance, architectural charm, and an exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the city's most established and successful Bed & Breakfasts. With a strong 40-year history as a viable and contributing business to the historic district, this remarkable property is as much an investment in legacy as it is in lifestyle. The inn features Nine tastefully appointed guest rooms, each with its own private bath, blending period detail with modern comfort. The gracious interiors include a welcoming parlor for guest gatherings, a warm and elegant dining room for breakfast service, and intimate spaces throughout the home for reading, conversation, and relaxation. A spacious, covered front porch with classic rocking chairs invites guests to slow down and enjoy the ambiance of this charming Southern town. A true centerpiece of the property is the expansive, custom designed commercial kitchen, a true chef's dream, crafted by the current owners. The kitchen meets requirements for a restaurant permit presenting unique income-generating possibilities including private dinners, cooking demonstrations, or culinary events, should the next owner choose to expand beyond traditional lodging services. The property includes several private accommodations in addition to the guest suites. A separate 1,857-square-foot owner's cottage sits peacefully on the grounds, offering full privacy and modern amenities within easy reach of the main house. The owners' cottage was completely redesigned and renovated in 2019/2020. Above the detached garage, a 511 SF one-bedroom apartment provides additional flexibility for staff quarters, extended family, or long-term rental potential. More ........
