Set on a truly stunning oversized homesite surrounded by mature trees and beautiful landscaping, the property delivers a rare combination of privacy, charm, and an unbeatable Inside the Beltline location. Guests can arrive through the elegant front entrance for a more formal welcome or enjoy the convenience of the side entrance that opens into a practical mudroom before leading directly into the heart of the home. The updated kitchen serves as the centerpiece of the main living area with quality finishes and an inviting layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond, the light filled sunroom offers a flexible space that is ideal for a home office, music room, reading retreat, or creative studio. The thoughtfully designed floor plan features three bedrooms on the main living level, including a spacious primary suite highlighted by vaulted tongue and groove ceilings and a custom walk in closet. Upstairs, each bedroom lives like its own private suite with direct access to a full bathroom, creating an ideal setup for family members or overnight guests. One of the home's standout features is the inviting dual sided fireplace that seamlessly connects the interior to a private outdoor alcove, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, quiet reading, or relaxing evenings by the fire. The oversized laundry room offers exceptional flexibility with ample space for crafts, hobbies, a homework station, or additional organization, while a second laundry area in the basement adds everyday convenience. The expansive unfinished basement provides incredible potential for future living space, whether you envision a recreation room, home gym, media room, or workshop. Two additional unfinished storage rooms offer abundant space for seasonal décor and long term storage, allowing the basement itself to remain a true extension of the home's living area rather than simply becoming a place to store boxes. Two tankless water heaters provide modern efficiency and an endless supply of hot water. From the remarkable homesite to the flexible floor plan and thoughtful updates, this is a rare opportunity to own a distinctive home on one of Raleigh's most prestigious and recognizable streets, just moments from the Village District, Downtown Raleigh, NC State, Lenovo Center, parks, greenways, and many of the area's finest dining, shopping, and entertainment destinations.
