    What's special

    Rear deckFront balconyOpen shelvingThoughtfully designed kitchenSoapstone countertops
    Some homes have a great location. Others have a great view. 635 Effie Way delivers both, with one of its most unforgettable features waiting at the very top: a private rooftop deck with sweeping views of the Downtown Raleigh skyline and Dorothea Dix Park. This distinctive three bedroom, two and a half bath home offers multiple outdoor spaces designed to take full advantage of its incredible setting. Start your morning on the front balcony, step outside to the rear deck and fenced backyard with low maintenance turf, or head upstairs to the rooftop deck for sunset views over the city and park. The backyard also includes a detached storage shed for bikes, outdoor gear and more. Inside, the thoughtfully designed kitchen features soapstone countertops and open shelving, along with a discreet floor access hatch leading to an unexpected bonus: valuable storage within the conditioned crawlspace. It is a smart use of space rarely found in an urban home. The primary suite offers another standout view, with the primary bathroom looking directly toward the beautiful landscape of Dorothea Dix Park. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office or additional living space. Dorothea Gardens also includes a neighborhood pocket park, providing additional green space just outside your door. And then there is the location. Enjoy easy access to Dorothea Dix Park, historic Boylan Heights, Raleigh's Warehouse District and the restaurants, coffee shops, entertainment, greenways and destinations that make Downtown Raleigh living so desirable. From evenings overlooking the Raleigh skyline to mornings with views across Dix Park, 635 Effie Way offers a perspective on the city that few homes can match. The rooftop deck is not simply another outdoor space. It is a front row seat to Raleigh.
