719 Edmund St, Raleigh, NC 27604

This brick Oakwood cottage is a gem in downtown Raleigh. Walk to Optimist Cafe, the dog park, Two Roosters Ice Cream, Yellowdog Bread, and more. There's an apple tree, fig tree, edible flowers, blossoming jasmine, exquisite birds of all colors, and the rarest of finds: beautiful barred owls (northern hooting owls) living and nesting in the grandmother oak tree just beyond the fenced area of the back yard. Dog friendly, fully walkable neighborhood, with great neighbors. Inside the house, original hardwood floors were carefully restored with Scandinavian natural finish. Appliances include a washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, and a new Bosch refrigerator. Newly renovated bathroom, and fresh paint throughout. It's truly surprising this house is so close to downtown. Harvest your own figs, apples, and jasmine blossoms for brewed tea, plant a garden, lay around in the fresh clover, keep some bees, hang a birdhouse, daydream, paint, write some music--make this delightful retreat for imaginative, creative, productive types your own. Unfurnished, flexible term lease, six month to yearly. Renter is responsible for all utilities. First month plus security deposit due at signing. Small pets considered.
