Set on a generous .38-acre flat, fenced lot, this painted brick ranch offers effortless one-level living in one of Raleigh's most desirable locations. Thoughtfully updated and impeccably maintained, the home blends classic charm with fresh, modern finishes throughout. Inside, hardwood floors, wood shutters, and decorator-quality details create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The fully renovated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a cheerful eat-in breakfast area plus additional bar seating. The living room centers around a fireplace, offering the option for cozy evenings ahead. All bathrooms have been beautifully updated, and each bedroom includes custom closets for exceptional organization. A spacious laundry room with abundant storage adds everyday convenience. Outdoor living is just as appealing, with a rear deck and grilling patio overlooking the expansive, level backyard--perfect for entertaining, pets, play, or future expansion. The home also offers a front driveway plus a side parking pad for added flexibility. A standout feature of the property is the detached building, which includes a one-car garage, heated and finished flex space, and a large storage closet. Currently used for storage, the garage could easily be converted for car access with the addition of a driveway. The finished interior space is beautifully appointed with custom built-in cabinetry and LVP flooring, making it ideal for a private office, playroom, or man cave. Plumbing could be added to create a full bath, opening even more possibilities.
