The wonderful Isaac Taylor
House, built in 1792 in the heart of New Bern's historic district has both residential and commercial
potential. 5208 square feet with 4 floors and a full basement, the home is a side load Townhouse, the oldest in
town and was built for Scots-born merchant Isaac Taylor. This home boasts a huge foyer, parlor, dining room and
kitchen with cooks fireplace on the first floor. The second floor has another large foyer, ballroom, bedroom and bath.
The entire third floor is a self contained apartment currently rented nightly, weekly or more. It has a bedroom
with 2 queen Rice beds, a combo Living Room/Dining, a fully appointed kitchen and private bath. The 4th floor has two
multi purpose rooms, currently one is used as a den and the other as a bedroom with private bath and laundry/mini kitchen. The
basement is unfinished, but would make a wonderful wine cellar and there is a 1960's fallout shelter. The courtyard
in the rear of this home is laid out in a fan configuration. There is a unisex bathroom in the rear as well where many
weddings have been held. The home has been used as a restaurant in the past and the courtyard was host to
a cafe. There are so many potential uses for this home! The lower floors could be a restaurant or retail, while
the upper floors could be held as a residence or additional income producing areas. Come see this beauty and re-live the occupation of Union Troops during the Civil War!
