Stately pines, a rich lawn, and large driveway greet you at this quintessential North Raleigh home. Thanks to the 276 sqft. bonus room upstairs (with its own half bath), you'll be surprised to feel how this three-bedroom ranch lives much larger than its listed square footage. From the covered front porch, a warm terra cotta tile in the foyer welcomes you into the striking living room. With vaulted ceilings, rich hardwoods, and a fireplace full of character, this room is the perfect anchor to your next home. The bright, renovated kitchen features granite countertops and newer stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. The kitchen is flanked by two convenient dining options with the breakfast nook and separate dining room. The *fenced backyard* features a deck, large patio, and raised garden bed planters. The two full bathrooms downstairs are a blank canvas for anyone's renovation dreams. The upstairs bonus room is heated and cooled, and with its half bath and separate entry (exterior stairwell), offers a great opportunity for visiting guests.
