Optional Triplex Configuration: Apart from the Garden Suite Basement, the main and upper levels can be easily sectioned off and rented to tenants and guests as private apartments. While the home isn't metered separately, each level has its own kitchen or kitchenette, laundry, and living spaces. Beyond the rocking chair front porch, you are just steps away from the very best of Raleigh. Oakwood's tree-lined streets offer a peaceful, neighborhood feel while keeping you effortlessly close to top-tier dining, local galleries, boutiques, and the vibrant energy of the city center. Parking is no longer an issue, either, with a driveway deep enough for more than 3 vehicles to park off-street. When you want to relax at home, the property sits on an oversized downtown lot, providing a lush, private backyard sanctuary and an expansive deck designed for al fresco dining under the stars. A century of history, beautifully reimagined. Whether you envision this as a sprawling 6-bedroom legacy estate, investment property, or a home with a built-in guest retreat, this Oakwood treasure is ready for its next chapter.
