About this home
Historic character, privacy, and walkable urban living come together at 502 Tilden Street. Recognized as the William H. H. Jones House, ca. 1913, this distinctive Glenwood-Brooklyn Historic District home blends Victorian and Colonial Revival influences with the space and flexibility to meet today's lifestyle. Tucked at the end of a no-through street, the home offers a rare sense of privacy just minutes from the heart of Raleigh. Inside, five bedrooms and 2.5 baths provide generous living space, including a first-floor primary suite. Upstairs bedrooms open to a second-story balcony, adding to the home's historic character and creating a unique connection to the outdoors. Multiple decks extend the living outdoors, overlooking a beautifully landscaped .34-acre lot complete with mature plantings, a gold fish pond, garden areas, and an above-ground pool. Enjoy the best of both worlds: a private retreat with Fletcher Park, Village District, Glenwood South, and Five Points all within easy reach. As a contributing property within the historic district, the home may also qualify for North Carolina's Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Program, offering up to $22,500 in state income tax credits for approved qualifying rehabilitation work. A rare opportunity to own a documented piece of Raleigh history while enjoying the space, privacy, and convenience of one of the city's most established neighborhoods.
