You know you've been eyeing it for a while now. With form, function, and an unbeatable location, this charming bungalow has it all. It's just one block from Moore Square and Transfer Food Hall. This is one of the closest homes to everything downtown Raleigh has to offer, with a greenway just minutes away. Where else can you find a home in downtown with no HOA? Charge your car with a level 3 EV charger, at a dedicated parking space in the back and cook in a spacious kitchen equipped with an induction stove. Rooftop solar panels help keep utility costs low, averaging around $50 per month for heating, cooling, and transportation. The large covered front porch is the perfect spot to unwind after a long day or to start your morning with a cup of coffee. The small yard also packs a big punch: relax on the deck, grow your own herbs and vegetables in raised beds, let your dogs roam safely within a picture-perfect picket fence, and store your bikes and gear in the shed. On top of all that, this home has been impeccably maintained and thoughtfully updated with timeless features--hardwood floors, quartz countertops, and elegant fixtures. The cozy, open floor plan doesn't sacrifice dining or living space. Make this downtown Raleigh home yours today, or invest in a property with strong potential for short- or medium-term rental income. New to downtown or a first-time homeowner? Some furniture may convey!
