Property Description
Lovingly cared for by the same family for more than 40 years, this charming ranch offers a rare combination of thoughtful updates, exceptional outdoor living, and nearly three-quarters of an acre just minutes from Downtown Raleigh. A beautiful tree-lined driveway welcomes you home, creating a peaceful first impression long before you reach the front porch. Situated on a beautifully landscaped 0.77-acre lot, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully improved over the years. Recent updates include a brand-new architectural shingle roof on both the home and detached garage, new Velux skylights, and a freshly stained wraparound deck overlooking the private backyard... the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind in the evening, or simply watch the birds gather at the feeder they've been visiting for years. Inside, you'll find custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, hardwood flooring, crown molding, recessed lighting, abundant built-in storage, and countless thoughtful upgrades that reflect decades of pride in ownership. The spacious kitchen offers generous cabinetry, pantry storage, and quality finishes designed for everyday living. Step outside and discover what truly sets this property apart. The expansive backyard is a gardener's dream, featuring a freshly tilled garden, established grape vines, a charming chicken coop with enclosed run, mature landscaping, a detached storage shed, and a detached garage/workshop with electricity. Whether you're dreaming of gardening, keeping chickens, pursuing hobbies, or simply enjoying your own private retreat, this property offers a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly difficult to find inside Raleigh. Nature lovers will appreciate the neighborhood's direct access to the Neuse River Trail, offering miles of scenic walking, running, and cycling along one of the Triangle's most treasured greenways. Conveniently located just 15 minutes from Downtown Raleigh and only minutes from I-440, I-540, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, this home offers the perfect balance of privacy, convenience, and outdoor living. Homes like this don't come along often... lovingly maintained, thoughtfully updated, and ready for its next chapter.
