In a sea of glossy sameness, this historically inspired new home offers something far rarer: substance. While many luxury builds chase trends and square footage, this one is grounded in time-honored scale and proportion, enduring materials, and restrained, unfrilly detail. It feels considered. Crafted. Built to last — not just to sell. Anchored in those values, it stands as the market counterpunch: substance over spectacle. As it rises (mid-Fall arrival), consider this your invitation to linger — over the floor plan, the finishes, and the photo gallery on McNeill Burbank's website. Then explore. Take a Sunday-styled drive-by. Park the car and stroll a bit. It's tucked into a sought-after sliver of Five Points, a neighborhood with low turnover for three good reasons: no through traffic, an embedded, street-long city park, and authentically walkable streets. Particular niceties await: a wildly flexible main-floor front room that moonlights as an office, bedroom, den, or toddler playroom. Condition storage behind the capacious garage. And a third-floor loft that rises to the occasion. Aside from FOMO, the real benefit of buying early? You get a say in the final touches.

Historic, Hi-Mount, bungalow awaits its next chapter! This cozy 2 bedroom home seeps nostalgia but needs a loving touch to bring it back to its full potential. Find original hardwoods throughout the living room, dining room and bedrooms. The living room fireplace has not been used and may not be functional. A large, level back yard allows room for expansion of the house or just enjoy the space and privacy. The HVAC appears to be fairly recent but unable to locate permit. Home is listed on the National Register of Historic Places - Hi-Mount Historic District. Per City of Raleigh there are tax benefits available for renovation of existing home but no prohibitions against demolition. Charming neighborhood with a good mix of updated/renovated homes and newer builds. Opportunity awaits!
