Back in 1968, Kay and Tommy Smith walked into this spacious 4BR/1.1BA Triangle colonial and knew it would be the perfect house to raise their four (eventually five!) children. There was something about the little hearts carved into the stair balusters that spoke to them and assured them that those walls wouldn't just protect their family from the elements; they would also hold a lifetime of love. Situated on a quiet tree-lined street, they also had a sneaking suspicion that this was the kind of neighborhood where people got together for coffee and everyone looked out for each other. They were absolutely right. Triangle was and remains that special kind of neighborhood. In a world of digital everything, Triangle is the kind of place where you can sit on your big front porch and wave to passersby as you enjoy your morning coffee; invite neighbors over for happy hour in your comfortable living room or dinner in your spacious dining room; or sip lemonade on your screened porch. Back in the day, the neighborhood kids played all day, and sometimes the families on the street would have get-togethers in the parking area behind the houses where they'd talk about life and sing Irish folk songs. Over the years, the street has welcomed a wonderfully diverse mix of neighbors from different generations, but the sense of community has remained constant. The Smith house has been meticulously maintained but could use some upgrading. Take out those carpets and you'll find hardwood flooring throughout the house. Blow out that kitchen by removing a portion of the dining room wall. Convert that breakfast nook and pantry into a main floor bathroom. Spruce up that finished attic, and you'll be adding another bedroom or living area. Similar updated homes in the neighborhood have sold in the high-$300K range, which makes this fantastic home a great opportunity for sweat equity. If you have the vision, the drive, and - most importantly - the heart to fill the shoes of the incredible Smith family, schedule a tour today.
