Conveniently located in downtowns' North side in the popular Brooklyn Arts District. Just a block from restaurants, and a short walk to Cape Fear's Preforming Arts Center and Live oak pavilion.

The historic home and the brand new addition are married by a private, quaint courtyard, accented with the original brick. This house is unlike any bungalow you have seen, crafted together carefully by interior designers and a quality local builder. It has been a heartfelt project with no detail left unturned. Live in the charm of a historic home but be comforted by the new roof, all new plumbing, new hvac and new electric. and a full house generator.
