At 520 S Bloodworth Street, the Raleigh skyline feels like part of your backyard. Step onto your porch and take in the view--then grab your coffee and be at Transfer Food Hall, Raleigh Wine Shop, and the heart of Downtown Raleigh in about a minute. This is the kind of location people dream about, but rarely find.
Originally built in 1910 and thoughtfully expanded with a stunning 2023 addition, this home blends historic character with modern luxury in a way that feels effortless. Inside, natural light pours through oversized windows, highlighting hardwood floors, high ceilings, and original architectural details that give the home warmth and soul.
The open layout is made for real living--easy mornings, lively gatherings, and everything in between. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper, featuring sleek cabinetry, premium appliances, a wall oven, an oversized island, and a statement pot filler that feels straight out of a designer magazine.
The main-level primary suite is its own private retreat, complete with a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins and a spa-like bath with an oversized shower and modern finishes. But the real magic? Stepping directly from the primary bedroom onto the screened porch and deck, where skyline views set the scene for quiet mornings and unforgettable evenings.
Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, home office space, or a second lounge area--one even features a wet bar and access to a private balcony, perfect for hosting or creating a space that feels uniquely yours.
With a welcoming front porch, multiple outdoor living spaces, and one of the best walkable locations in Raleigh, this home is a rare combination of charm, style, and convenience.
Convenient access to Downtown Raleigh restaurants, Fayetteville Street district, Raleigh Wine Shop, Red Hat Amphitheater, NC State University, and I-40/I-440.
