About this home
Welcome to a rare gem in the heart of Historic Oakwood--where timeless character meets exceptional modern living. This fully updated historic home offers the best of both worlds, blending preserved architectural charm with thoughtfully curated upgrades throughout.
Greeted by a rocking chair front porch, you will be amazed once you step inside this home. Tall ceilings and original hardwood floors run throughout, telling the story of the home's rich history. A spacious family room/study with built in desk, bookshelves, and 2 corner cabinets. Bright open dining room with real wood burning fireplace flows seamlessly into the breakfast room and kitchen where you will find another fireplace with gas logs, custom built kitchen island, 2 ovens, tons of cabinets/ storage, and a nearby walk in laundry/ pantry. There's even a dry bar area plumbed and ready for a sink.
Three spacious bedrooms, each with its own beautifully appointed en-suite bath, provide comfort and privacy for both residents and guests. The primary bedroom, located on the first floor, has a large walk-in closet with built in shelving and drawers. The primary bath features a double vanity, walk in shower and a claw foot soaking tub. The second bedroom with en-suite bath, also located on the first floor, is tucked away in the rear of the home for added privacy. A third bedroom with en-suite bath awaits upstairs for total privacy. Best of both worlds, the living room features a true wood-burning fireplace, and the breakfast room features gas logs, to fill this home with warmth and ambiance.
The real showstopper? An extraordinary sunroom unlike anything you've seen--featuring four sets of French doors that flood the space with natural light and seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living.
Step outside to an entertainer's dream: a stunning brick terrace designed for year-round enjoyment. Take a dip in the heated saltwater pool with waterfall wall, gather around the impressive freestanding brick fireplace, or host unforgettable evenings under the stars in this private, resort-style setting. Built in speakers throughout the downstairs set the stage for magnificent entertainment.
Off street parking/ driveway, and tons of floored attic storage upstairs are rarities in Oakwood! Theres even a separate fenced in dog area on the side of the home.
All of this, just steps from the shops, dining, and vibrant lifestyle that make Historic Oakwood one of Raleigh's most coveted neighborhoods.
This is more than a home--it's a statement....
