Charming 1925 American Craftsman Bungalow - Two Blocks from the Pamlico River
Discover timeless character and a rich family legacy in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath Craftsman bungalow located in the heart of Washington, NC. Built in 1925 and owned by the same family for three generations, this stately two-story home sits on a spacious corner lot (approx. 1/3 acre) in a quiet, established neighborhood just two blocks from the Pamlico River.
From the wide front porch to the beautifully restored red oak floors, this home is filled with warmth and craftsmanship. Inside, you'll find high 10-foot ceilings, three large bedrooms, a spacious dining room, and an upstairs bonus room with a closet—perfect for an office, guest room, extra bedroom or playroom. A large walk-in attic provides excellent storage. The kitchen and utility areas are functional and updated, including a Rudd central gas HVAC, gas water heater, and an updated electrical panel. The home also features a fully operational ADT security system with cameras and fire/smoke/CO2 detectors.
The oversized lot offers ample space for outdoor living, gardening, or boat parking. A mature pecan tree provides shade and an annual harvest of fresh pecans, while a wired concrete pad is ready for a shed or workshop. Friendly, long-time neighbors live on both sides, adding to the welcoming feel of the area.
Just a short walk to the park, pier, and historic downtown, you'll enjoy easy access to shops, restaurants, and Washington's beautiful waterfront. With proximity to the Inner Banks, Outer Banks beaches, and historic towns like Bath and New Bern, this home offers both charm and convenience.
This rare, well-kept Craftsman is more than a house, it's a piece of Washington's history. Don't miss your chance to make it your own.
