Built in 1901 for brothers James and Charles Ford, this Queen Anne/Neoclassical Revival two-story later housed prominent architect James Matthew Kennedy (designer of the Raleigh City Market and Murphey School) from 1909-1916. Architectural highlights include a steeply pitched hipped roof, a striking gabled front projection with lozenge-shaped shingles and a Palladian-style attic vent, a wraparound front porch with Tuscan columns, a charming bay window, and classic two-over-two windows throughout. Currently configured as a triplex - ideal for investors, house-hackers, or anyone looking to convert it back to a single-family home. A detached structure at the rear of the lot was originally built as a two-car garage in 1948 and is currently used as a shed, with easy potential to convert it back to garage use.
