Description

Forest Hills is one of Raleigh's most treasured addresses, and 2721 Van Dyke Avenue sits right at the heart of it. It's close enough to Village District's shops and restaurants, and the neighborhood's parks, to make either an easy weekday habit. A classic Cape Cod greets the street, framed by mature trees, a covered porch and a carport with room to spare. Inside, this 2,890 square foot home pairs the character buyers want in an older Raleigh home with space and flexibility that are hard to find:...Forest Hills is one of Raleigh's most treasured addresses, and 2721 Van Dyke Avenue sits right at the heart of it. It's close enough to Village District's shops and restaurants, and the neighborhood's parks, to make either an easy weekday habit. A classic Cape Cod greets the street, framed by mature trees, a covered porch and a carport with room to spare. Inside, this 2,890 square foot home pairs the character buyers want in an older Raleigh home with space and flexibility that are hard to find: 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, multiple living areas and a dedicated home office. The great room is the home's defining feature, vaulted and skylit, anchored by a fireplace framed with custom built-ins that repeat in the office down the hall. French doors lead to a screened porch with a tongue and groove ceiling, extending the living space outdoors and into the fenced backyard. The floor plan is where this home really earns its keep. Two bedrooms sit on the main level. Upstairs, an additional bedroom plus a 23' x 17' bonus room with its own bath and generous closet space previously served as an oversized primary suite. Use it as a primary retreat, a playroom, a guest suite, or a fourth sleeping space, whatever fits your life right now. Even the detached outbuilding, finished with its own French doors, offers a second workspace, studio or gym outside the main house. A new roof, fresh interior paint, and new carpet add peace of mind alongside the character already in place. With generous storage and rooms ready to evolve with you, 2721 Van Dyke offers something hard to find this close to central Raleigh: real space, real flexibility and room to make it your own.
