Property Description

Perched atop a quiet hill beneath a canopy of mature oaks, this fully restored tudor-style storybook cottage blends timeless character with a carefully considered modern renovation. This 3 bed 3.5 bath turnkey home captures expansive views of the tree-lined University Park neighborhood while offering a seamless balance of beauty and everyday livability with a private parking rear access entryway. Reimagined by SOW Design, the home's vaulted ceilings and restored oak hardwood floors establish an atmosphere that feels both airy and welcoming. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen spaces unfold with ease, where integrated appliances, natural stone and walnut surfaces, and antique architectural elements create a layered balance of craftsmanship and function. An intentionally curated lighting plan enhances the home's warmth, casting a soft glow throughout each space. French doors extend the living experience outdoors with new landscaping by Landvision Designs, connecting both the kitchen and first-floor primary suite to a bluestone patio with integrated landscape lighting. At the front of the property, a fire pit overlooks the neighborhood below, creating an inviting setting for gathering with friends or enjoying a quiet evening beneath the trees. All three bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings and en-suite baths, including a serene main-level primary retreat. Additional flex spaces offer room for a library, office or sitting room, while a powder bath, dedicated laundry room, walk-down basement, attic storage, and cedar garden shed provide everyday utility. Comprehensively renovated with new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, spray foam insulation, windows, and doors, the home lives with the confidence of new construction while preserving the charm that makes cottages so enduring. Ideally positioned ITB with close proximity to some of the best of Raleigh like the Rose Garden, NCSU, Ridgewood Shopping Center, and walkability to Raleigh's oldest elementary school, the home offers a distinct lifestyle rooted in creativity and community. A rare cottage with a view, a story to tell, and ready for its next chapter.
