About this home

Experience the rare combination of downtown charm and the total peace of mind that comes with a new home. This isn’t a quick renovation; it is a 90% new construction rebuild, meticulously crafted from the new foundation up. Every major system is brand new: new framing, new roof, new walls, new subfloors/flooring, and entirely new electrical, plumbing, HVAC systems and windows. Soaring 9’ ceilings add to the modern, open feel throughout.

Perfectly positioned just around the corner from the highly sought-after Historic Oakwood District and only minutes from Downtown Raleigh, this home boasts the best of location, charm, and convenience making it an excellent opportunity for a first-time home buyer looking to step into a move-in-ready property without the worry of major updates.

Step through the front door into a stunning open-concept sanctuary. The intentional design boasts an immediate view straight through to the lush, private backyard, creating a seamless connection between the luxury interior and the outdoors. The chef-inspired kitchen is a host’s dream, featuring premium cabinetry, designer lighting, and a layout great for entertaining. This home was completed with incredible thought and love.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
