Classic character meets modern updates in this renovated Five Points home, walkable to the neighborhood's shops and dining. Refinished hardwood floors throughout, fresh paint and fixtures, new kitchen and updated bathroom vanities. Flexible office/flex space and full unfinished basement provide additional utility and storage. The expansive, private, shaded backyard features an exceptional screened porch, deck, fire pit area and storage building. Alley access provides potential for an ADU with its own driveway. Additional improvements include a new gas water heater, recent HVAC service and fresh landscaping. Pre-listing inspections have been completed and are available for review.
Bloomsbury, located between Five Points and Downtown Raleigh, is a historic and residential Raleigh neighborhood with early-20th-century bungalows and a leafy street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Whitaker Mill Rd and Atlantic Ave corridor, where small studios, local eateries, and low-key retail sit in converted light-industrial spaces. Porch-lined homes and mature trees set a calm streetscape, while greenway links and pocket parks shape daily routines. Nearby cultural anchors such as Theatre In The Park and the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences add an arts-and-curiosity thread. The Raleigh Rose Garden and Pullen Park bring open lawns, paths, and seasonal color close to home. A short ride connects to downtown’s galleries, coffee counters, and evening venues without changing the neighborhood’s quiet cadence.
