Some homes are defined by what happens inside their walls. Others are made even better by everything waiting just beyond the front door. At 1108 Clifton Street, you get both.Set on a desirable corner lot in the heart of beloved Mordecai, this is the kind of Raleigh address where the neighborhood becomes an extension of home. Mornings might begin with a walk for coffee and something fresh from Yellow Dog Bread Co. Weekends can unfold over dinner at Crawford & Son, Jolie or the highly acclaimed Big Cat, a pizza from Oakwood Pizza Box, or drinks with friends at Person Street Bar or Standard Beer + Food. Oakwood Dog Park is close by for four legged residents, while Downtown Raleigh, neighborhood parks and some of the city's favorite gathering spots are all just minutes away. And yet, when you come home to Clifton, there is every reason to stay awhile. Step inside and the home immediately feels warm, polished and exceptionally well cared for. Hardwood floors, crown molding and plantation shutters bring a timeless quality to the interiors, while designer lighting, updated bathrooms and fresh paint add a more current point of view. It is a home with character, but also one that has evolved thoughtfully over time. The floor plan makes everyday living remarkably comfortable. A first-floor primary suite creates a private retreat and the ease of main level living, while the gathering spaces flow naturally from quiet mornings to evenings spent entertaining. Open the door to the screened porch and life begins to spill outside, whether it is coffee on a cool morning, dinner as the sun goes down, or simply slowing down at the end of the day. Beyond it, the grilling deck overlooks a spacious fenced backyard framed by mature landscaping and illuminated by landscape lighting after dark. There is room here for garden beds, a game of catch, four legged friends or a crowd of people on a fall evening. On a corner lot this close to Downtown, that combination of privacy, outdoor space and mature surroundings feels increasingly special. One of the home's greatest surprises is just how much room there is to spread out. The finished lower level feels less like a traditional basement and more like an entire additional living level, with two bedrooms, a full bath and an expansive recreation space that can easily accommodate movie nights, game days, guests or a more private place to unwind. Upstairs, a bonus room with brand-new carpet offers yet another flexible destination, equally suited for a home office, playroom, media room or creative space. A walk-in attic provides the kind of accessible storage that makes the home's nearly 3,000 finished square feet even more functional. Just as importantly, much of the work that comes with owning a home has already been thoughtfully addressed. A brand-new roof, upstairs HVAC replaced in 2024, a new water heater in 2025, complete home re-plumbing, new gutters with gutter guards and drains, and replaced irrigation provide meaningful peace of mind. The garage adds an I increasingly hard-to-find convenience in an in-town neighborhood, and the home is wired and ready for EV charging.But the real appeal of 1108 Clifton is difficult to capture with a list of improvements alone. It is the screened porch on a spring evening. The mature trees and landscaped yard on an autumn day. Having room for guests to stay without feeling underfoot. Walking out the door and knowing dinner, coffee, parks and Downtown Raleigh are all close by. It is having nearly 3,000 finished square feet to live, work, gather and retreat, while still feeling connected to one of Raleigh's most established and sought-after neighborhoods. 1108 Clifton offers something increasingly difficult to replicate: a beautifully cared-for home with genuine space to live, a backyard to enjoy, thoughtful improvements already completed, and a Mordecai lifestyle that begins the moment you step outside the front door.

Set high above the rambling Eno River, this builder's own Georgian manor is a masterclass in timeless elegance & pastoral perfection. Perched on a dramatic 70-foot bluff, the estate is surrounded by 26 private acres of rolling meadows and whispering hardwoods, including 9 acres of untouched conservation land that provide a substantial property tax benefit exceeding $220k. Take your golf cart or ATV down the 1+ mile of meandering trails that wind down to the river's edge, where you can catch glimpses of a bygone grist mill era, creating a setting that feels both storied & secluded. Crafted with uncompromising quality & an eye for enduring design, the residence showcases refined finishes & bespoke details at every turn. Brazilian cherry floors gleam beneath soaring 10+ foot ceilings, while walls of Andersen windows frame cinematic views in every direction. Four bedrooms (each with its own en suite) & multiple living spaces (indoors & out) provide plenty of space for everyone, with the star of the show being the first-floor primary suite featuring a serene sitting room, fireplace, dual closets, & a spa-like bathroom. The gourmet kitchen is both polished & purposeful, appointed with Viking & Miele appliances, rich granite countertops, & custom, solid maple cabinetry. Another (but not the last) fireplace between the breakfast room & den adds ambiance to the everyday. Formal & informal spaces flow effortlessly, while expansive front porches, a rear terrace, & a fire pit area offer sweeping vistas over the river, dramatic rock outcroppings, front meadow, & surrounding woods that envelope you in privacy. With zero light pollution around, the widow's walk is the perfect place to star gaze during meteor showers. Thoughtfully designed for both comfort & convenience, the home features dual laundry rooms, a massive mudroom/drop-zone, workshop spaces in the three-car garage, a partial basement, & a walk-in attic for all the storage you could ever need. The 60' shed with workshop could easily be converted to a horse stable for any equestrian enthusiasts. There is no shortage of activities your acreage can offer, but when you do decide to leave, you'll be only 9 minutes from downtown Hillsborough, & an easy drive in either direction to Durham and Mebane. Land with hundreds of years of history, a home that was built to last just as long, & tax breaks to top it all off...it just doesn't get much better than this. **Please note that Zillow reflects an incorrect tax assessment value. The correct valuation is $1,970,495. The conservation easement tax credit then brings the actual taxed value down to $1,750,099.

Enter up the drive and this beautifully updated farmhouse immediately draws you in with mature oaks shading the front yard and an expansive covered porch spanning the front of the home; this is the kind of porch made for a swing, a row of rocking chairs and quiet afternoons in the shade! Step inside and the home's historic roots give way to a surprisingly spacious, updated interior that feels far more modern than its age might suggest. Refinished hardwood floors lead through the entry, where an open staircase with decorative ironwork rises beneath a striking arched window that pours natural light through both levels of the home. On the main level just off of the foyer, the inviting family room centers around a stone accented wood-burning fireplace providing both cozy ambiance and a functional source of supplemental heat. A rustic wood mantel adds even more character and is believed to have been reclaimed from original structures on the property. A separate den continues the home's farmhouse character with a wet bar and additional rustic barn wood accents. Continue into the spacious, well equipped, open kitchen and dining area where there is plenty of room for everyday living, entertaining and gathering around the table. Granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, pantry storage and a center island that anchors the kitchen; topped by a hanging pot rack that adds both function and a subtle farmhouse touch. The dining table may remain with the home and is said to have been handcrafted by a former owner from repurposed lumber found on the property, adding another meaningful touch to the home's farmhouse history and feel. A rear mudroom with convenient storage opens directly to the expansive deck where there is plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. Two bedrooms and a full bath are also located on the main level, affording flexibility for guests or home office space. A centrally located laundry room adds everyday convenience with built-in shelving for storage and a handy laundry chute connected directly from the upstairs primary bathroom. Upstairs, the light-filled landing leads to two generously sized bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bath. The primary bedroom feels like a retreat of its own, featuring a garden tub tucked into a separate alcove, adjoining bath with shower and walk-in closet. Sliding glass doors open to a private covered balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day. Outside, a detached garage adds even more versatility, with unfinished space where previous owners began improvements including rough-ins for plumbing, electrical and bathroom accommodations. An older farm building remains toward the back of the home as well. Both structures are being conveyed as-is, giving the next owner opportunities for storage, a workshop, hobby space or future projects tailored to their own needs. Highlighted by 3.42+/- acres, the property offers a pleasing mix of open lawn, mature shade trees and gentle rolling land with room for gardening, recreation, fencing for animals or simply enjoying the extra space and privacy. County records reflect the home dates to around 1901, with an extensive renovation completed in 2006. More recently, the current sellers have thoughtfully refreshed the home, renewing the interior and exterior spaces while preserving the features and character that make this property so distinctive. Enjoy the feel of country living without giving up convenient access to surrounding employment, shopping and service centers. This property is ideally positioned for travel west to Raleigh/Wake County, as well as Rocky Mount/Wilson to the east. NOTE: Property is closely monitored and shown by appointment only, please do enter the property unless accompanied by a NC licensed real estate agent.
