2714 Wayland Drive
Raleigh, NC 27608Charming 1940s bungalow in the heart of highly sought-after Wayland Heights — where character, location, and opportunity meet. Just minutes from Downtown Raleigh, the Village District, North Hills, RDU, and RTP, this home offers the kind of convenience that makes everyday living effortless. Inside, you'll find timeless details that buyers love — original hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and the warmth and craftsmanship you simply can't replicate in new construction. A spacious primary suite was thoughtfully added in 2004, creating a more functional layout while maintaining the home's classic charm. The unfinished basement provides incredible storage or future expansion potential, and with the A/C replaced in 2025, some of the big-ticket updates are already done. Whether you're dreaming of restoring its vintage beauty, modernizing to your style, or creating your forever home in one of Raleigh's most established neighborhoods — this bungalow is full of possibility. Wayland Heights rarely disappoints — and this one is ready for its next chapter.
