Award winning Dogwood Design and Development welcomes you to their newest, custom, and completely renovated historic bungalow. Conveniently located in downtowns' North side in the popular Brooklyn Arts District. Just a block from restaurants, and a short walk to Cape Fear's Preforming Arts Center and Live oak pavilion. This 1917 historic bungalow was completely restored and redesigned with soaring ceilings and salvaged beams to showcase a gourmet kitchen and gas fireplace, while a brand new addition was built on to the back to accommodate a first floor master suit, an adorable bathroom under the stairs and two bedrooms with a full bathroom upstairs. The historic home and the brand new addition are married by a private, quaint courtyard, accented with the original brick. This house is unlike any bungalow you have seen, crafted together carefully by interior designers and a quality local builder. It has been a heartfelt project with no detail left unturned. Live in the charm of a historic home but be comforted by the new roof, all new plumbing, new hvac and new electric. and a full house generator.
