Welcome to 1207 Duplin Road - an exceptional Inside-the-Beltline home where timeless design meets forward-thinking functionality. Built as one of Raleigh's first aging-in-place homes and featured as a 2012 Parade of Homes showcase, this thoughtfully designed ranch offers the ease of one-level living without compromising on style. Inside, you'll find spacious, light-filled living areas designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. The seamless indoor-outdoor flow continues to the inviting screened porch, overlooking a beautifully sized backyard that offers endless possibilities for gardening, play or future outdoor living. A circular driveway creates a welcoming first impression while providing ample parking, and the home's New Wave Smart Home technology brings modern convenience right to your fingertips. A standout feature of the home is the expansive full second level. Keep it as an incredible amount of easily accessible walk-up storage, or finish the space to create additional bedrooms, a home office, bonus room, fitness studio or guest suite. With the infrastructure already in place, it offers exceptional flexibility to fit your needs today while providing the opportunity to significantly expand the home's finished living space in the future.
