About This Home
SEE PRICE IMPROVEMENT!! Enjoy low-maintenance living just steps from Historic Oakwood and only a few blocks from the State Capitol, Person Street, restaurants, breweries, and everything downtown Raleigh has to offer. Originally built in 1920 completely gutted in 2005/6, expanded, and reimagined in 2009, this home blends historic charm with modern comfort. Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open layout that create a bright and inviting space. The spacious primary bedroom, versatile loft, and two unfinished storage areas provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional storage. Enjoy the private deck with room for a fire pit and outdoor seating, plus a storage shed, small fenced garden area, concrete driveway, and gated front porch—all designed for easy, low-maintenance living. Recent improvements include a new roof (2026) and partial crawl space encapsulation (2024), offering added peace of mind. A rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready home in one of downtown Raleigh's most desirable locations.
