About this home
An anchor of Raleigh's Wilmont neighborhood, 201 Shepherd Street blends the character and charm of a classic 1942 brick home with the comfort and functionality of modern living. Set on a beautifully landscaped corner lot, the home welcomes you through an inviting entry vestibule into light-filled rooms rich with original details, including hardwood floors, millwork and hardware. The fully renovated kitchen and main-level bathroom feature timeless, high-end finishes thoughtfully selected to complement the home's historic roots. Gracious living and dining rooms flow into an incredible sunroom, while two main-level bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or whatever suits your needs. Upstairs, a stunning, fully renovated primary suite is joined by a fourth bedroom, additional bathroom, and conveniently located laundry room. The 726 square foot (unconditioned) basement adds an entirely new level of possibilities, with a spacious gathering area, room for a home gym, two additional office spaces, and a full bathroom. Outdoor living is equally inviting, whether relaxing on the side porch swing, entertaining on the deck, or gathering around the firepit on the patio. The expansive, fully fenced backyard offers a private retreat rarely found in such a central location. Beyond the property, University Park's mature trees, pocket parks, and picturesque streets create a wonderful sense of place. Enjoy nearby Village District shops and restaurants, NC State University, and downtown Raleigh, or access the greenway near Meredith College for a scenic route to the North Carolina Museum of Art and beyond. Rich in history, beautifully updated, and surrounded by the best of Raleigh, 201 Shepherd Street is a home with a story all its own.
