This charming and well-appointed 1950s ranch is located within walking distance of some of inside-the-beltline Raleigh's hottest redevelopment zones and a two or three-minute car ride to countless shopping and dining venues. Hardwood floors throughout, stainless steel appliances, newer windows with plantation shutters, smooth ceilings, natural gas range and granite countertops update this beauty and make it move-in ready. The primary bedroom at the rear has its own en-suite bathroom and a super-long 10-foot closet; secondary bedrooms at the front could be for guests or offices and have their own dedicated full hallway bathroom. Eat at the breakfast bar or make a delightful dining space near the kitchen. Enjoy both a family room at the rear and traditional living room at the front. Behind the house lies the grand surprise, a 30-foot inground freshwater swimming pool with large patio surround, raised beds for the gardeners, and a storage/planting shed. Spend the warmer months basking in your personal and private oasis in the middle of the city. And all year long enjoy life with equally convenient access to downtown, Five Points, Midtown and North Hills.
