Listing details for 1212 Brookside Dr, Raleigh, NC 27604 : Renovated one-level home in walkable downtown Raleigh with vaulted ceilings, custom kitchen, and private backyard patio for easy indoor-outdoor living. Welcome to 1212 Brookside Drive, a thoughtfully updated one-level home in downtown Raleigh. The painted brick exterior highlights its classic character, while interior upgrades bring a fresh and functional style. In 2022, both the interior and exterior were professionally painted, and electrical improvements were made throughout, including the replacement of 2-prong bedroom outlets with GFCI-protected 3-prong receptacles. Inside, hardwood floors run through the main living areas; please note that the floors could benefit from refinishing. The front living room serves as a central gathering space and connects through the hall to the renovated kitchen, creating a layout that works well for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen was remodeled in 2020 with custom cabinetry, checkerboard flooring, updated countertops, sink, and stainless steel appliances. A tankless water heater and dedicated electrical circuits were also added during the remodel. Updated lighting from Watford Electrical includes 17 recessed can lights across the family room, kitchen, and hallway—all on dimmers with dual zones for flexible ambiance. A bright dining space within the kitchen adds warmth and flow. The utility and laundry room provides convenience, additional storage, and backyard access. The bedroom layout offers flexibility and privacy. The owner's suite features a private hallway entry with exposed brick, vaulted ceilings, and a painted brick accent wall. A large split closet system with a window provides generous storage, and a private exterior door connects directly to the backyard. The en-suite bath is fully updated with quartz countertops, white-washed maple cabinetry, dual sinks, tile flooring, new fixtures, and a spacious walk-in shower. Within the same hallway are two secondary bedrooms and a full guest bath with tile flooring and tub-shower combo. In the backyard, a 2020 addition of a custom patio with power, lighting, and conduit (installed by Watford Electrical) supports entertaining, outdoor dining, or string lighting for evening ambiance. The shed also includes power, interior lighting, and outlets inside and out. Life at Brookside offers the convenience of downtown Raleigh, where you can start the day with coffee at Optimist, enjoy dinner and cocktails at Standard, and return home to a charming and functional one-level home.
