Nestled on over half an acre CUL-DE-SAC lot inside the beltline in Raleigh sits this precious soft contemporary RANCH awaiting its new owner. Freshly painted outside and some inside, your favorite part might be the Renovated kitchen with GRANITE counters + subway TILE backsplash and tile floor + Pantry/Laundry. Or, it may be the SCREENED PORCH overlooking your serene FENCED back yard with adorable circular patio. Grill out on the grilling deck. Relax in a Hammock out back. Roof replaced in 2020. Once inside, you are greeted by vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a stone fireplace (Note: Woodstove was removed, but the connection remains.), Bamboo floors, Solar tubes, and a floor plan that flows like a traditional ranch. Energy efficient features include a TANKLESS water heater and Insulated Windows. Storage options include a full attic, a storage room attached to the screened porch, a crawl space with vapor barrier, a small storage shed, and a SHE/HE-SHED that is heated/cooled/wired...currently used as an art studio! This property is your own retreat, yet right in the middle of Raleigh with NO HOA! It has been lovingly maintained by its owners and is move-in ready! Convenient to 440, 40, NCSU, Lake Johnson, Shopping, Dining, and Minutes to the Airport!! All of this for UNDER $450,000!!
