309 S Haywood St Street

If a house could hype you up like Lizzo on a Friday morning, this one would be playing ''Good as Hell'' on loop. Bright, confident, and ready for anything — this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Craftsman sits on a sunny corner lot in downtown Raleigh and brings all the vibes.
There's something about all the natural light pouring through the windows, bouncing off the floor to ceiling bookshelves. The open layout gives you room to move, breathe, host, relax — whatever your day calls for.
Off the dining space/office area is your perched deck, where custom metal railings give things a modern edge. It's a perfect little spot for sipping something cold, blasting your favorite playlist, and watching the neighborhood hum around you. The fenced backyard is just enough space for lounging, pets, or a small garden — low-maintenance and totally chill.
Out back, you'll find something you don't see every day — an urban bee house that adds both edge and eco-conscious charm. Designed for city beekeeping, it's a sleek, modern nod to sustainability that helps support Raleigh's local pollinators while giving you small-batch honey from your own backyard. Whether you're into rooftop gardens, microgreens, or just love the idea of nature woven into city life, this is a little backyard flex that blends perfectly with downtown's creative, community-driven energy.
One of the best parts? The dedicated workout room. Already set up and ready to go, it's your own space to stretch, sweat, lift, or dance it out. Whether you're on a fitness kick or just need a space to breathe, it's got you.
And let's talk location. You're not just close to downtown — you're in it. Transfer Co. Food Hall is just a stroll away when you're craving something easy and delicious. Moore Square's always got something happening, from night markets to live music. Red Hat Amphitheater? CAM Raleigh? Boutiques, breweries, bike trails? They're all right there. You can leave the car parked and live your life on foot, two wheels, or scooter if that's your thing.
This is one of those homes that makes everyday feel a little more effortless. It's got the space, the style, and the location — all wrapped in sunlight and good energy. Whether you're hosting, hustling, chilling, or dancing around in your socks with a face mask on, this house is here for it.
Come see it. You'll walk in and get that 'good as hell feelin' and stay a while.
