A Turnkey Retreat on Over Half an Acre Minutes from North Hills Tucked away on a beautifully landscaped 0.51-acre lot, 509 Oakland Drive offers something rare this close to the city: space, privacy, and complete peace of mind. This fully reimagined ranch with a finished basement has been thoughtfully transformed from top to bottom, creating a home that feels fresh, solid, and ready for its next chapter. Every major system has already been taken care of, so you can simply move in and enjoy. The home features a brand-new roof and gutters, two new TRANE HVAC systems for efficient zoned comfort, and all-new flooring, lighting, insulation, drywall, and a redesigned stairwell that seamlessly connects both levels. At the heart of the home, the stunning kitchen blends style and function with custom cabinetry, modern finishes, and premium KitchenAid stainless steel appliances. It opens into bright, welcoming living spaces that are perfect for everyday living and easy entertaining. All three bathrooms have been fully renovated with new tile, vanities, and plumbing fixtures, creating a clean, timeless look throughout. Outdoor living truly sets this home apart. The rebuilt upper Trex deck includes a custom water-management system that keeps the lower deck completely dry, allowing you to relax or entertain outside even when it rains. A new concrete driveway, lower patio, upgraded foundation drainage, fresh sod, and professional landscaping complete the outdoor transformation. The expansive backyard offers endless possibilities from hosting gatherings and letting pets roam to gardening or even adding a future pool (buyer to verify). Opportunities like this, with this much usable land so close to North Hills, are incredibly hard to find. Additional upgrades such as a new radon mitigation system provide even more confidence in the quality of the home. This isn't just a renovation it's a full reinvention of comfort, craftsmanship, and lifestyle in one of Raleigh's most established and convenient neighborhoods.
