Built in 1908 and set within Raleigh's beloved Boylan Heights Historic District, 414 S. Boylan Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own one of the neighborhood's original homes. Rich with history and architectural character, its soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, gracious front porch, and timeless craftsmanship provide the foundation for a home uniquely your own. Outside, an unusually deep backyard creates a private retreat rarely found this close to downtown. A flower-filled garden, brick patio, charming walkway, gazebo, and rear alley access provide both immediate enjoyment and future possibilities, whether your vision is to expand outdoor living or to further cultivate the gardens. Established beginning in 1907, Boylan Heights was one of Raleigh's earliest planned suburban neighborhoods and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. More than a century later, its tree-lined streets, architecturally significant homes, welcoming front porches, and strong sense of community continue to define one of the city's most treasured neighborhoods. Life here is measured less by square footage than by experience. Walk to nationally acclaimed Boulted Bread for morning coffee, meet friends at nearby restaurants, breweries, and neighborhood pubs, or spend evenings enjoying galleries, concerts, festivals, parks, and sweeping views of the Raleigh skyline—all just moments from your front door. For those who appreciate history, architecture, and the opportunity to steward something truly special, 414 S. Boylan Avenue offers far more than a home. It is a chance to become part of one of Raleigh's most enduring neighborhoods while creating a legacy that will continue for generations.
