Property Description

One of the most iconic homes in Hayes Barton is on the market! The timeless, two-story Flemish bond brick house was designed by William Henley Deitrick and built in 1935 by John W. Coffey and Son. Of note is the unique Regency-style wooden latticework over the front entry portico and metal window boxes that match the portico lattice. In 1997, the house was bought and extensively updated/renovated. Rufty Homes handled the renovation which included: new electrical wiring, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, creation of a primary ensuite bedroom and spacious kitchen, loads of built-ins, among other updates. Only 2 owners have lived in the house for the past 90 years -- clearly it is a great property that the owners have enjoyed. Entering the inviting foyer, you immediately realize that the home has been loved and meticulously cared for over the years. Generous sized rooms, high ceilings, large windows, wide molding, hardwood floors, heavy brass hardware and great bones make this an exceptional property. In addition to the home, the deep lot is exceptional too! The backyard is beautifully landscaped and terraced, tranquil and private -- your peaceful retreat in the heart of Hayes Barton. The house is move-in ready and fabulous as is, but there is also great potential with plenty of options for renovations or adding off the back. Headboard in primary does not convey. Conveniently located to shops and restaurants at Five Points, The Village District, downtown Raleigh and Raleigh Ironworks. Charm, quality and location...all in one very special property!
