Property Description

Welcome to 205 John Street -- where small-town living marries suburban homesteading to create the life you've just dreamed about -- until now. Let's start with the house: a 4-bedroom ranch plan (all first-floor living) with 3 FULL bathrooms in a linear floorplan that allows for flexible uses for the different seasons of your life. Starting from the left wing of the house, you find 3 bedrooms with a shared full bath. The middle section offers the charm of a 1950s brick home with an oversized living room, paneled study, updated kitchen w/walk-in pantry, another full bathroom and delightful architectural details like large picture windows, doors with round glass panes and exposed brick walls. The right wing of the house is the gift of modern luxury: a spacious owners' suite built in 2022 that can accommodate an office, bedroom and sitting room w/ sleek contemporary bathroom w/ glass shower w/bench and navy blue vanity. Outside, you'll find 3/4 of a acre of usable, flat fenced yard. There's plenty of space for dogs to run or for children to play soccer or for gardeners to grow tomatoes, asparagus and other summertime bounties. Fig trees, blueberry bushes, camellia and rhododendron make the land fruitful, beautiful and fragrant. The city of Louisburg allows chickens too -- for those who want farm fresh eggs every morning even within city limits. Speaking of city, if you've never visited Louisburg, leave your car on John Street and walk to the quaint downtown to enjoy restaurants, shopping, bars and Louisburg College. If you're itching for a night in the Big City, hop on 401 and head to downtown Raleigh. Within an hour, you're in the midst of the Raleigh nightlife and weekend festivals.
