Check out my new listing at 1412 Hebert. It is gorgeous. This is the view from the front door into the living room and through to the dining room. My favorite part about this room, next to the great natural light and the gleaming hardwood floors are the built-in bookshelves. This is just one of the thoughtful treatments done during the renovation of this home.
This photo looks into the dining room from the kitchen. The stairs featured lead to the second floor. The open floor plan is ideal for entertaining.
This kitchen is one of the smartest layouts I have seen. Notice the opening between the dining room and kitchen and how neatly the dishwasher fits there. Also notice that the space doesn’t feel cramped or dark. It is the cut out in the doorway that doubles as extra counter space that makes this arrangement possible. It doesn’t seem like anything special until you realize that most homes would have either lost the space for the dishwasher or closed in the opening, losing the view and the light. The cabinets in this kitchen are solid wood, hand-made and over sized, meaning that they utilize all the storage space offered with these high ceilings. The counter-top is stile stone meaning that you can actually use it and there is under cabinet lighting as well as upgrade stainless appliances. I could go on about the kitchen, but there are some other unique features about this home that deserve a quick highlight.
The second floor deck complete with ceiling fan and view of the arch may very well be my favorite part of the home.
But the extra deep with yard with artisan fence is a close second.
SOOOOOOO much has been going on in ONSL just in the last 12 months. It is refreshing to see what a group of dedicated citizens and a well run community-based non-profit organization can do in the way of revitalization. Progress is being made on so many levels. The 14th Street Mall, is in the midst of its 30+million dollar redevelopment. And on a smaller scale there are many single building rehabs already finished or in the process of complete renovation/restoration.
1412 Hebert, in my very humble opinion, is going to sell fast. I am not saying that there are not thoughtful and thorough renovations done in other parts of the city. But you’d be hard pressed to find this kind of attention detail 200K. 1412 Hebert sits on one of the best blocks in ONSL where the homes are stately and owner occupied. It is walkable to the 14th Street Mall and not to far from the New Roots Urban Farm

Was driving in Old North today. Amazing amount of rehab activity going on. Noticed this house which has a beatiful fence gate and brick sidewalk. Appears to be on a block with many other rehabs.
