About this home

Walk to the park, dinner, a concert, or even to work. This home, located in Historic Boylan Heights in downtown Raleigh, is convenient to everything while keeping the charm of a small-town neighborhood. House is located on a private corner lot with low traffic and a wonderful view of Dix Hill/Dix Park. The house is currently a front/back duplex. Each apartment contains a large one-bedroom layout (approx. 800 square feet) with one full bath, living room, and an eat-in kitchen. Both units also have a washer and dryer. Live in one unit and rent the other, or the house could also easily be made back into a single-family home. Currently 1,582 square feet, and there is a large yard with room to expand. Features include a large two-car garage, wraparound front porch, and upgraded electrical and plumbing. It has a five-year-old roof and a three-year-old gas furnace. Much has been done to this house, but there is more to do. House will be sold as is. Bathrooms and kitchens are functional but could use some updating.
