Set on a private, wooded lot of over an acre, this classic brick, one-story ranch offers a rare combination of privacy, space and extensive updates. Real hardwood floors run throughout the home, including new hardwoods in the kitchen that were carefully matched to the existing flooring. Major improvements include Pella windows, a new roof on the home, carport and workshop, updated electrical and lighting, new appliances, refreshed drywall and paint, and custom mudroom built-ins. The exterior has seen just as much attention with new front and rear decks, retaining walls, extensive grading and drainage work, new topsoil and grass, tree removal, and a new back porch gutters and downspouts. The wooded setting provides incredible privacy, while the detached workshop offers additional space for storage, hobbies or projects. With over an acre, one-story living, a brick exterior and extensive updates already completed, this is a property that is increasingly hard to find in Raleigh.
