Property Description
It's barely hyperbole to say that this may be the best house on the best lot on the best street in the best neighborhood in Raleigh. (And there are 2 houses!) Built in 1912 & lovingly updated & improved during the current owners' 14+ years of ownership, and with vast entertaining & overnight accommodation spaces perfect for hosting loved ones & friends, the ''Wedding Cake'' house is one of the larger homes on Green Park, with 4+ beds & 4 full baths. It's charmingly historic, yet completely modernized & move-in ready, featuring both aesthetic updates—like the improved & redone baths, open kitchen w/ carrera marble counters, pull out cabinet drawers, & high end appliances, all of which opens through floor to ceiling glass doors to the huge yard professionally landscaped & hardscaped by Arrowhead Designs to include deck & patio space w/ seating and an outdoor fireplace—as well as functional (if somewhat unseen) updates—like new HVAC & ducts, new paint, sealed crawlspace, and more! Plus it sits on a huge-for-the-city .33 acre lot with a 797 square foot 1BR / full bath / full kitchen guest house in back with its own alley access. Honestly, it cannot all be covered here. You've got to see it to believe it. And it would take a novella to list all it has to offer.
