Raleigh, NC 27610Discover the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern living in this extensively renovated 2-bedroom, 2-full-bath basement home in one of Raleigh's desirable Inside the Beltline neighborhoods with no HOA. Ideally located just minutes from North Hills, Downtown Raleigh, NC State, shopping, dining, parks, big Wake aka Wake Med Raleigh, and major commuter routes, this home offers both convenience and a peaceful setting surrounded by mature trees. Thoughtfully designed with quality craftsmanship, improvements include a 2025 architectural shingle roof, rebuilt rear deck with privacy screen, new front steps and back door, refinished hardwood floors, some new siding, interior and exterior paint, new fascia, 6-inch gutters with underground drainage, new attic insulation, professionally cleaned ductwork, and updated drywall with popcorn ceilings removed where applicable. A permitted Ramjack structural repair in the back dining room includes a transferable warranty for added peace of mind. The stylish kitchen showcases quartz countertops, newer cabinetry and hardware, designer backsplash, new stainless-steel appliances including a counter-depth refrigerator, and a reverse osmosis water filtration system at the new sink. The upstairs bathroom has been thoughtfully renovated with a quartz countertop, pedestal sink, custom built-in cabinetry, new toilet, fixtures, and tile. The basement bathroom has also been refreshed with a quartz countertop and updated fixtures. Both baths showcase style and functionality. The lower level provides versatile flex space with HVAC and a full bathroom, ideal for a home office, fitness room, media space, hobby area, or storage. Portions may not meet ceiling-height requirements for inclusion in the home's heated square footage, but the additional space offers approximately 752 square feet of usable living area. Outside, professionally landscaped grounds feature landscape lighting, natural stone, and brick patios crafted from reclaimed brick found on the property. A refreshed gravel driveway with granite curbing, custom iron railings, decorative boulders, and a spacious fully fenced backyard create an inviting setting for entertaining or relaxing. Homes offering this combination of thoughtful renovation, privacy, and outdoor living Inside the Beltline are increasingly rare. Move-in ready and ideally positioned near Raleigh's most sought-after destinations, this is a distinctive opportunity to enjoy character, convenience, and modern comfort in one exceptional property.
