1205 Kimberly Drive

Raleigh, NC 27609

1205 Kimberly Drive invites you to put down roots in one of Raleigh's most established & sought-after residential pockets. Set in the heart of North Hills, this 1963-built home has proudly sat on its private, wooded .37-acre lot and watched one of Oak City's most coveted enclaves expand, and now? It's ready to welcome you home. Inside, a thoughtful floor plan offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and 3,117 square feet of finished living space, with a basement that brings even more flexibility to the home's overall footprint. Topped with a new Baker Roofing roof installed in late 2025, this North Hills hideaway gives its next owner the rare chance to step into a well-loved address with one of the biggest updates already checked off the list. Wide-plank heart pine floors show a warmth that only six decades of living can produce. Exposed ceiling beams define the family room, where a full masonry fireplace has witnessed every festivity this house has known. Separate living and dining rooms occupy the main level's most generous sweep, with a gentle split-level transition that gives the floor plan a natural sense of separation and flow. A covered front porch spans the facade, looking out over a garden that regularly puts on a seasonal show. The 2007 addition brought a vaulted sunroom wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass opening directly onto a rear deck, where a mature tree canopy delivers privacy that only time could honor. The primary suite carries a skylit, walk-in flex room and ensuite bath. A second full bath, and two additional bedrooms complete the wing. The lower level holds a recreation room with parquet floors and sliding glass doors to a covered patio. An additional flex room, bathroom, utility space, and a separate exterior entry with secondary laundry give this floor unique flexibility and multigenerational or investment potential. North Hills Club, shops, restaurants, and the energy of the North Hills district and St Albans corridor are just a few minutes away, giving you access to Raleigh's most dynamic and urban villages. Downtown Raleigh, Crabtree Valley Mall, RDU airport, and the Research Triangle Park are all within easy reach. Staying with one family for over 50 years, this home holds special memories. Mornings once spilled into the woods behind, afternoons stretched out on bikes along the street, porch lights glowing on Halloween, sparklers on the Fourth of July. 1205 Kimberly Drive has been the backdrop to things that matter where you live, and it's inviting you for its next chapter.
