You’ll notice the charm the moment you pull up—the classic brick front framed by mature azalea bushes and a long, tree-lined drive leading to a private, wooded acre. Tucked into North Raleigh yet only minutes from I-540, RDU, RTP and downtown, this home balances quiet, rural feeling privacy with exceptional regional access.
Step inside to a surprisingly generous floor plan spread across 2,808 square feet. Living and entertaining spaces feel distinct but connected: formal rooms for gatherings, casual family areas for everyday life, and a full basement that expands possibilities—media room, workshop, or extra storage. With 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths there are private suites and flexible spaces to adapt to home office, guest, or hobby needs.
The home’s original character shows in its brick façade and mature landscaping, while interior sightlines reflect thoughtful planning: rooms open where you want them to and retreat where you need them. Practical systems are in place, including central air conditioning, and the generous footprint creates multiple zones for dining, relaxing, and hosting.
Outside, the property reads like a neighborhood secret: a full acre of wooded buffer that lends seclusion and creates a private backyard experience. Community amenities extend your outdoor options—pool, tennis courts, clubhouse and equestrian trails add recreational variety, and Falls Lake is only minutes away for boating, fishing and longer nature outings.

Priced at $650,000 and offering strong square footage on a rare one-acre lot in North Raleigh, this home is a compelling opportunity for families and professionals who want proximity to the Triangle’s strongest employment and leisure hubs without sacrificing green space.
