308 Whitaker Mill Road
Raleigh, NC 27608THE quintessential Five Points bungalow is on the market, where timeless charm meets modern comfort in one of the city's most beloved neighborhoods. Enjoy an iconic beauty that everyone admires! This house can easily compete with new construction! Nestled on a tree-lined street just steps from local cafes, boutiques, and parks, this thoughtfully maintained home blends historic character with stylish updates. Greg Paul did a meticulous renovation and architecturally appropriate addition in 2017 with new windows, wiring, roof, plumbing, electrical & HVAC. The current owners added an oversized detached garage plumbed with hot water, extensive hardscaping such as a large patio & a fire pit, driveway pavers and landscape lighting. The lot is quite deep, and it has a wonderful backyard. There is good parking in the back as well. The open floor plan, 10 foot ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and modern baths all contribute to make this a truly outstanding home! Inside, you'll find classic built-ins, and abundant natural light that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. The living room flows seamlessly into a cozy dining area and an updated kitchen with Thermador stainless steel appliances and Carrera marble countertops—perfect for everyday living and entertaining. There is also a 900-bottle wine cellar. The 4th bedroom can also be a lower rec room. Zero entry showers in the lower level bedroom & the primary bedroom. Well-known builder, Duncan Ray pulled a permit for the garage and also added the upper-level closet. Wake Gov only shows the garage, so we are not certain if the closet is in the same permit. The closet is included in the heated footage. This is an amazing home with all the charm of yesteryear but almost new!
