MORE ABOUT THIS LISTING

This classic one-level home sits just 15 minutes from the vibrant energy of Downtown Raleigh and mere moments from Gateway Plaza. You can enjoy a dynamic local lifestyle just down the street from Raleigh favorites like Union Special and Mala Pata, which was freshly celebrated with a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand nod. In fact, everything from Michelin-caliber dining to local comfort food spots like Cook Out can be accessed in minutes.

Boasting an incredibly convenient location, you are just a short drive from major grocery stores, shopping, services, and all the major highways (I-40, I-440, US-87, and I-540) to make commuting a breeze. Plus, you’ll get to move right in with total confidence, knowing that the most expensive structural items have already been updated—a full roof and HVAC replacement were both completed in 2020.

The interior serves as a clean, light-filled canvas, freshly painted and anchored by beautiful original hardwood floors that run seamlessly through the main living areas and all three bedrooms. A central, well-proportioned family room serves as the heart of the home, surrounded by large, vinyl energy-efficient windows that frame views of the beautiful old pines and hardwoods outside. Right off the main living space, a dedicated dining area offers the exact layout versatility today’s buyers need, functioning beautifully as either a formal eating space or a quiet, sunlit home office.

In the kitchen, an efficient L-shaped design maximizes workflow with crisp white cabinetry and ample storage space to keep daily essentials organized. Upgraded for modern convenience, the space features new stainless steel appliances, including a stove (2022) and a brand-new dishwasher (2026)—plus a washing machine (2026) and dryer that convey with the home!

A major highlight of this layout is the seamless access to dual, independent outdoor living spaces that truly showcase this private, park-like lot. From the kitchen, head directly out onto a large, brand-new main deck that is perfectly sized for grilling and hosting outdoor dinners. A completely separate entry point leads from the dining room out to a second back deck, offering a more intimate, private spot for morning coffee while overlooking the deep, tree-lined backyard—which is entirely ready for the avid gardener to make it their own.

For buyers with a passion for DIY projects, the lower-level infrastructure is quite an asset. Beneath the home, a deep crawlspace comes equipped with a sprawling concrete slab area—an ideal footprint for a sheltered, heavy-duty workshop or extensive seasonal storage. By combining big-ticket updates with an unbeatable location and a spacious lot, this property gives you the freedom to build immediate equity on your own terms.
