Premier location within Forest Park, one of Raleigh's most sought-after turn-of-the-century neighborhoods considered to be among the most convenient & accessible in the City. From the front porch, you will enjoy a quiet street under a towering canopy of oaks. This location combines the ultimate luxuries of living in a historic neighborhood with multiple parks, while enjoying a vibrant urban life, just steps away from the many amenities of The Village District. The Thomas E. Browne House (ca. 1915) is a home that combines 1920s historic charm including high ceilings and detailed millwork with modern amenities. Inside, you will discover spacious living areas and a downstairs flow among living, dining and kitchen areas that is rare in homes of this era. The sunroom has been updated to function as an additional living space or home office/studio. The master suite catches downtown sunrise views & features adjacent dressing and laundry rooms with abundant natural light, creating an upstairs oasis within the tree canopy. The screened porch with its high, open ceiling is perfect in three seasons. A walk-up attic, rare for a home of this era, provides abundant storage that is convenient to access on a daily basis. Recent significant renovations to the kitchen, upstairs bath, HVAC, including new ducts and spray-foam insulation, make this historic home move-in ready. The owners have been careful to preserve & maintain the charming historic features of the home. A detached garage with parking pad is accessible at the rear of the home accessed by a city alley which provides privacy and convenience. You don't want to miss this one!
