A retro-inspired 1971 brick ranch that blends vintage character with thoughtful and practical updates. Perfect for young professionals or couples who crave something more unique than a new build, this home has fantastic curb appeal with fresh exterior paint, all new windows, and a newly landscaped yard, plus a welcoming front storm door that fills the space with natural light. Inside, you'll find a bright, open living and dining room, a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace, and a kitchen that proudly shows off its original, well-maintained 70's appliances alongside classic wood cabinetry, new flooring, and updated light fixtures. Three bedrooms, including a private primary suite with a new ceiling fan, provide plenty of space, while original hardwoods beneath the carpet offer even more potential. Major upgrades have already been taken care of - new roof, brand-new windows with warranty, updated plumbing and electrical, attic insulation, serviced HVAC, and updated light fixtures - leaving room for you to add your own style without worrying about big-ticket items. Outside, enjoy an expansive restained deck overlooking a large, level backyard with a natural privacy buffer that extends past the creek, perfect for grilling or gathering friends. Tucked in an established South Raleigh neighborhood with mature trees and no HOA, you'll love the easy access to I-40, quick commute downtown, and walkability to the nearby park.
