801 N First Avenue

Completely reimagined, rebuilt from the inside out, this exceptional Knightdale property offers the character of a classic home with the quality, efficiency, and finishes expected in luxury new construction. Originally built in 1950 with an addition completed in 1980, the home underwent an extensive top-to-bottom renovation in 2024, leaving virtually no detail untouched—from the insulation behind the walls to the door hardware and hinges throughout. Offering 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a dedicated office, spacious loft/bonus area, abundant storage, and a detached two-car garage, this home delivers the flexible floorplan today's buyers demand. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and features a spa-inspired bath complete with a zero-entry shower and freestanding soaking tub. The heart of the home showcases real original oak hardwood floors, granite countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, custom built-ins, solid wood pocket doors, designer accent walls, and thoughtfully curated finishes throughout. Additional upgrades include a 3-zone HVAC system, tankless water heater with recirculating pump, conditioned sealed crawlspace, all-new insulation meeting current energy standards, smart thermostats, low-E windows, PEX plumbing, and James Hardie fiber cement siding. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a vaulted screened porch, brick patio with firepit, large fenced yard, and dedicated basketball area—creating the perfect setting for both entertaining and everyday living. As an added bonus, this remarkable home sits directly across from Knightdale Station Park, a premier 71-acre destination featuring walking trails, playgrounds, athletic fields, splash pad, dog park, and year-round community events, restaurants, coffee shop, & brewery. Homes offering this combination of craftsmanship, walkable location, and modern functionality rarely become available.
