218 Lafayette Road
Raleigh, NC 27604Dating to the 1940s, this bungalow retains all of its charm and character but is updated and ready-to-live. With curb appeal to spare, this home received a full kitchen renovation in 2020 (along with an update to both bathrooms) and boasts a wonderful private and large fenced backyard, delightful rocking chair front porch, and off-street parking. Upstairs you'll find an open primary suite with full bathroom, sitting area and enormous walk-in-closet; downstairs two additional bedrooms (or offices), living with working wood-burning fireplace, dining and kitchen. Gorgeous hardwood floors throughout the first floor. From here, on the edge of Raleigh's Mordecai neighborhood, you'll be walking to some of downtown Raleigh's best stuff, including restaurants, coffee, breweries, bakery, pharmacy, and so much more.
