Property Description

Some homes are purchased. Others are stewarded. Welcome to The Allen Home, a rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of Raleigh history in the heart of Boylan Heights. Originally constructed circa 1926 and recognized as a contributing structure within the Boylan Heights National Register Historic District, this remarkable home is being thoughtfully restored and expanded to preserve its historic character while providing the comfort, efficiency, and functionality expected for modern living. Situated on a generous homesite with valuable rear alley access, the home offers a level of privacy, flexibility, and outdoor living rarely found so close to Downtown Raleigh. Step outside and enjoy one of the city's most desirable lifestyles with walkable access to Dix Park, the Warehouse District, Heights House, Boulted Bread, Rebus Works, Liz Kelly Pottery, Sauna House, neighborhood parks, greenways, restaurants, galleries, and Downtown Raleigh. The carefully designed addition expands the residence to more than 3,340 square feet and includes expansive gathering spaces, a dedicated office, private upper-level balcony, scullery pantry with wine storage, generous rear patio, and a rare main-level en suite bedroom ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or flexible work-from-home needs. Selections curated by Monarch Property Co. blend timeless materials and thoughtful craftsmanship with modern convenience through Monogram appliances, designer fixtures, curated tilework, marble accents, and richly layered finishes designed to complement the home's original architecture. This is not a reproduction of a historic home. It is the authentic preservation of one—thoughtfully adapted for its next century of living. Originally constructed circa 1926, the Allen Home is a contributing structure within the Boylan Heights National Register Historic District and is undergoing a preservation-minded restoration and expansion designed in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. The carefully designed addition preserves the historic character, scale, and architectural integrity of the original home while expanding the residence to approximately 3,340+ square feet. Features include a rare main-level en suite bedroom, dedicated office, private upper-level balcony, scullery pantry with wine storage, expansive rear patio, and valuable rear alley access. Interior selections curated by Monarch Property Co. include Monogram appliances, Kohler Whitehaven farmhouse sink, Delta Nicoli plumbing fixtures, marble accents, curated tile selections, designer mosaics, frameless glass enclosures, layered brass and champagne bronze finishes, and thoughtfully selected materials intended to complement the home's historic architecture. Comprehensive modernization includes all-new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, upgraded insulation strategies, smart-home infrastructure, and extensive low-voltage prewiring for audio, video, security, networking, and future technology integration. Early buyers may have limited opportunities to personalize select finishes, fixtures, appliances, cabinetry details, technology integrations, lighting, paint selections, and other design elements depending on stage of construction. Buyer to verify all specifications and selections. Subject to final construction plans and approved modifications.
