502 Devereux Street

This historic home offers incredible authenticity and history as well as all of the benefits of being walking distance from the edge of downtown Raleigh. Located within Raleigh's Glenwood-Brooklyn Historic Overlay District on a peaceful dead-end street with fantastic neighbors, this 1910 beauty has 2034 square feet on the first floor (3 bedrooms including the primary and 2.5 bathrooms and a pair of fireplaces) on the first floor, and then anywhere between 400 and 1400 additional square feet on the second floor depending on how one counts it. Eleven-foot ceilings on the main floor in the original part of the home, a lovely and very large 1910s front porch, and very large living and dining rooms are just some of the highlights. Whether you've dreamed of a down-to-the-studs renovation or perhaps a smaller project of just a room or two and leave everything else the way it is, this home represents incredible potential and value and joy of ownership. Current owners expanded off the back (all permitted) to create a new primary suite and kitchen (commercial grade range, custom woodwork by Bob Batura and Cutting Edge Woodworks, and beautiful countertops). Behind the house there are two sheds, an enclosed garden area , and a vintage chicken coop (with super-cool remote-controlled door pulley). The current owners owned and loved on this home for more than thirty years. We'd love to see the next owners be here for just as many.
