About this House

We are thrilled to present an exceptional home in Woodcrest that perfectly blends desirable features with a prime location. This property offers the tranquility of mature landscaping and an organic gardener's dream, all while being just minutes from Downtown Raleigh, North Hills, and walkable to Gateway Plaza with its restaurants and breweries. Upon entering, you are greeted by an inviting all-seasons room, which seamlessly flows into an open living area. This space boasts a raised ceiling and skylights, providing an abundance of natural light. The home features new neutral paint throughout, beautifully complementing the gorgeous original gunstock flooring. The layout thoughtfully separates the living spaces, with three secondary bedrooms located on the right side of the home. The newly added owner's suite is privately nestled in the back left. Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled for a contemporary look while retaining the charm of this well-built brick home. Significant energy-efficient upgrades have been made, including solar panels installed in 2013. In 2021, an encapsulated crawlspace with a tankless hot water heater was also added. The rear deck generously wraps around most of the back of the house, offering ample space for outdoor enjoyment and featuring an attached shed ideal for bikes, tools, and gardening essentials. The completely organic garden produces high-yielding fruits such as mature blueberries, figs, apples and mulberries along with perennial blooms for year-round enjoyment. There are also several varieties of bell peppers, sweet potatoes, beans, melons and squash. Simply a gardener's dream yard! Property is in very close proximity and walking distance to the Greenway trails and to Powell Elementary school. This home is a must see!!

    "Great location near downtown Near major Hospital. Easy to get anywhere near the beltline. Near major parks and bus stops.Friendly people that walk their dogs. Only problem is the noise from the hospital and high school band during football season. "

    "I've lived here for over 10 years. I suggest that you pick and a residence based on the particular intersection, but overall it's not a bad place to dwell. It's quiet and most people are either from NC or have lived here for a long time. There's a low percentage of renters and the neighborhood is diverse in a good way. This is a good place for families with kids or older couples to live. There are not restaurants or shopping plazas worth visiting in the area--go downtown for those. There's a great greenway nearby!"

    "You can't beat this part of Raleigh. Two minutes from downtown, Wade Ave, the Belitline, and 40? It's the best place to be for getting anywhere and you're close to what other people wish they were. We have a family of 4 and the parks are better equipped than others in Raleigh, the homes are affordable, and you can actually get to know everyone in the area around you because they are all out on the weekends in their yards with their families and dogs. It's a great area for everyone basically. Can't recommend it highly enough. I think it will be the next hot spot inside the Beltline once people catch on to the value and how much better the traffic and commute situation is from here versus some more popular areas. Did I mention the lots are large and have garages. No street parking all over the place like some of the rabbit warren areas near downtown."
