Currently a highly lucrative Airbnb (which is why this home will be on and off the market in order to accommodate bookings), you could live it this home, expand it, or continue to Airbnb or VRBO it. Makes for a delightful primary home, investment property, or a combination of both. This charming bungalow with no HOA is literally steps from shops, restaurants and services -- and only blocks to the center of Five Points in the heart of Raleigh. The kitchen has just a hint of modern vibe to it and built-in breakfast nook is both super cool and very useful. The backyard is surprisingly large and considering that you are on the edge of the most-requested part of town, this little home packs a big punch. Navigate to 35°48'24"N 78°37'55"W today.
This charming bungalow is literally steps from delightful shops, restaurants and services -- and only blocks to the heart of Five Points in the heart of Raleigh. A modern and clever update about ten years ago gave this classic some jazz. A larger-than-expected backyard is just one of the many reasons you'll thrill to this one. Live it as is or expand off the back -- either way you're in the thick of everything and on the edge of the coolest neighborhood in town. Navigate to 35°48'24"N 78°37'55"W today.
