Built with character and craftsmanship, the home spans approximately 1,400 square feet and retains mostly original features and finishes throughout — from the wood floors and floor inlay to the classic layout with a living room, dining room, and kitchen that reflect its early 20th-century charm. A large covered front porch invites you to relax and watch the world go by on one of Oakwood's most picturesque streets. Inside, you'll find a canvas ready for your vision — this property will require updates and renovation but offers endless potential for those who value authenticity and timeless architecture. Surrounded by meticulously restored historic homes and within walking distance of Moore Square, Person Street restaurants, and the State Capitol, 509 N East St is the perfect project for anyone who wants to bring new life to a true Raleigh original. The home is located within the Oakwood Historic Overlay District of Raleigh zoning.
