BIG LOT. SMALL FOOTPRINT. ENDLESS POTENTIAL — JUST MINUTES FROM DOWNTOWN RALEIGH! Enjoy the best of simplified living with room to grow! This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath Raleigh bungalow sits on an impressive .52-acre lot with NO HOA, offering a rare combination of affordability, space, and flexibility this close to Downtown Raleigh. Freshly painted and move-in ready, the home features hardwood floors throughout the living area and bedrooms, a tiled kitchen and bath, and a backyard storage shed. The manageable footprint makes this a great option for a first-time buyer, downsizer, investor, or anyone looking for a home that's easy to maintain while still having plenty of outdoor space. The half-acre lot is the real standout — with room for gardening, entertaining, pets, additional outdoor living space, or potentially an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), subject to applicable zoning and City of Raleigh requirements. Located approximately 10 minutes from Downtown Raleigh, the property also has a strong rental history, making it worth a look for investors seeking a well-located rental or long-term opportunity. Important driveway note: The driveway belongs to this property and is shared with the neighboring property as a courtesy. Buyers are welcome to drive up the driveway and enter through the rear of the home, where the lockbox is located. No HOA. Over half an acre. Minutes to Downtown. Move-in ready with room to make it your own.
