A rare chance to own a home in Boylan Heights, one of Downtown Raleigh’s most beloved historic neighborhoods!
Built in 1908 and set within Raleigh’s iconic Boylan Heights Historic District, this gem presents a rare opportunity to re-imagine and create a home uniquely your own. With 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a gracious living room, separate dining room, kitchen, and a charming front parlor, the home’s timeless bones provide the foundation for thoughtful updates in one of downtown Raleigh’s most treasured neighborhoods. Rich with character and classic architectural details, this home has the kind of layout and craftsmanship rarely seen.
Established in 1907, Boylan Heights is recognized as one of Raleigh’s earliest planned suburban communities and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. More than a century later, its tree-lined streets, distinctive and charming architecture, and nearness to urban luxuries attract those who love close knit neighborhoods with character but access to cultures. Life here is measured less by square footage and more by experience. Start your mornings with a walk to Boulted Bread for nationally acclaimed croissants and coffee. Spend evenings meeting friends at nearby restaurants, breweries, and neighborhood pubs while taking in views of the Raleigh skyline. Festivals, concerts, galleries, parks, and the energy of downtown Raleigh are all just moments from your front door.
Beyond the home itself, the property offers features that are increasingly difficult to find in the urban core, including a deep rear garden ready to become an exceptional outdoor retreat and valuable rear alley access, a hallmark of historic Boylan Heights that opens the door to future possibilities.
For the buyer who appreciates history, architecture, and the opportunity to secure something truly special, this is your opportunity. It is a chance to become part of one of Raleigh’s most enduring neighborhoods and steward a piece of its history for the next generation.
