Just minutes from the vibrant Person Street District, enjoy easy access to neighborhood favorites including Crawford and Son, Jolie, Oakwood Pizza Box, Yellow Dog Bread Company, and Two Roosters Ice Cream, along with the beloved shops, restaurants, and gathering spots of the historic Mordecai and Oakwood neighborhoods. Inside, original pine hardwood floors welcome you with warmth and character, while a beautifully renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home. Featuring custom cabinetry and an oversized center island with seating for five, this inviting space is equally suited for everyday living and effortless entertaining.

Outside, a generous deck overlooks the fully fenced backyard, where a magnificent mature ash tree provides a beautiful natural canopy. A spacious detached shed offers endless possibilities for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Thoughtful improvements extend well beyond the home's charming interiors, including a brand-new roof installed in October 2026 with a transferable 10-year warranty, a fully encapsulated crawlspace with ventilation and electricity, French drains along the side of the home, and an EV charger conveniently located at the front of the property. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved, this home offers the character of a classic Raleigh bungalow with the updates and conveniences of modern living. With its distinctive architectural details, welcoming outdoor spaces, and exceptional proximity to some of Raleigh's most cherished destinations, 402 Harding Street is a truly special place to call home.
