You'll be welcomed into a grand entry hall with 10.5-ft. ceilings, all formals, first floor bedroom and huge eat-in kitchen and prep area. Four additional bedrooms on the second floor, plus a sitting room adjacent to screened porch. Walk-up attic. Standing seam metal roof. Heated and cooled basement/workshop. Sited on a .45-acre parcel in the heart of Raleigh's coveted, truly walkable neighborhood.
