Harvey Mansion, Federal-style mansion in downtown New Bern, United States.

The three-story brick mansion features an exposed basement and stands at 219 Tryon Palace Drive in New Bern, North Carolina.

John Harvey constructed this mansion in 1793, which later served as temporary barracks for Union Army elements during the Civil War.

The mansion transformed from a private residence into multiple institutions, including a boarding school, military academy, and the initial site of Craven Community College.

The property now operates as a boutique hotel and restaurant at 211 South Front Street, offering accommodations in a historical setting.

Numerous visitors report encounters with an apparition of a woman in period clothing wandering across the second and third floors of the building.
