Beautifully renovated for modern one-level living, with a second building featuring a 3-car garage, heated/cooled office, workshop space, and ADU potential. This home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates, including a welcoming front porch, bright primary suite, and dedicated dining room. Two turnarounds provide multiple parking and access options—so you never have to back onto Glenwood Avenue. The seller, a licensed general contractor, has plans and pricing available for a 1-2 bedroom ADU conversion with rental income potential, as well as a second-story addition that could nearly double the home's living space. Pre-listing inspection reports are available for added peace of mind. Stroll to Five Points for coffee, restaurants, and neighborhood favorites, with quick commutes to Wade Avenue, I-440, and Downtown Raleigh. Renovated. Walkable. Expandable.
