Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a cedar closet—perfect for keeping your finest clothing protected.
Outside, this home truly shines. The welcoming front porch and convenient carport set the tone, but behind the privacy fence, you'll discover even more. Both gates open wide to accommodate boat or vehicle storage in the backyard. The tall, fully fenced yard offers privacy and seclusion.

Hillsborough Street, Harris Teeter, medical clinics, and major bus lines are just moments away. Downtown Raleigh is but a few miles and Cary Crossroads is only a short drive.
