This home boasts a rich history and distinguished character, ready for new owners to make it their own. In the early 1980s, a full renovation and two-story addition were completed in collaboration with a well-known architect, Jon Condoret, enhancing the home's versatility and charm. The adaptable layout allows for a primary bedroom either upstairs or downstairs, with a centrally located kitchen surrounded by a dining room and spacious living areas. Large windows throughout provide scenic views of the gardens, while the back patio and a front walled courtyard offer private and inviting spaces for entertaining or relaxation. This is an incredible opportunity for buyers to update finishes and create a true showpiece on a premier lot in one of Raleigh's most sought-after neighborhoods.
