Property Description

Welcome to 1705 Oakboro Drive, where timeless charm, beautiful updates, and flexible living spaces come together in North Raleigh's established Falls River community! Offering 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 2,509 square feet, this inviting home has room to spread out, entertain, work from home, and enjoy everyday living. Extensively refreshed in September and October 2026, the home features refinished hardwood floors, new carpeting, fresh interior paint, and stylish updated lighting throughout. The kitchen has undergone a major refresh with new quartz countertops and backsplash, refinished cabinetry, a new single-basin sink, matte black hardware, and updated pendant lighting. All three bathrooms have been beautifully refreshed with quartz vanity tops, new undermount sinks, updated mirrors, fixtures, and lighting. The primary bath features double sinks, a refinished soaking tub, matte black finishes, and lovely garden views. The thoughtful floor plan offers a traditional living room with gas-log fireplace, formal dining room, breakfast area, and a spacious, sun-filled living area off the kitchen overlooking the backyard gardens. Three traditional bedrooms are complemented by a versatile fourth bedroom offering wonderful possibilities for a bedroom, playroom, creative space, or combination of uses, along with a large walk-in closet and access to generous walk-in attic storage. Additional finished space above the garage provides even more storage possibilities. Step outside and discover a backyard with a charming secret-garden feel! Established landscaping, winding brick pathways, a patio, and a delightful garden cottage create a peaceful setting for gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing outdoors. A welcoming covered front porch, two-car garage, abundant storage, 2017 roof, and sealed crawl space with sump pump add to the home's appeal. And the lifestyle extends well beyond the property! Falls River offers the charm of an established neighborhood with the convenience of North Raleigh. Enjoy picturesque tree-lined streets, sidewalks, parks, playgrounds, green spaces, and nearby access to scenic greenway trails. Oakboro Park is less than a block away, with Durant Nature Preserve and Falls Lake nearby. Optional Greenway Club membership offers swimming, tennis, pickleball, and more. Grocery stores, restaurants, specialty shops, healthcare facilities, and everyday conveniences are just minutes away, along with easy access to I-540 and major commuting routes. Imagine starting your morning with coffee in the sunroom overlooking the gardens, enjoying an afternoon walk along the neighborhood sidewalks or nearby greenway, and relaxing in the evening by the fireplace. Or settle into the front porch swing or rocking chairs, wave hello to neighbors out walking their dogs, and enjoy the welcoming neighborhood atmosphere. With its thoughtful updates, flexible spaces, beautiful gardens, and exceptional location, this home offers that wonderful combination of established-neighborhood charm and North Raleigh convenience!
