King Bed|Fenced|Walk Downtown|Historic Vibe

The “Delany House,” a beautifully renovated North Carolina landmark, blends historic charm with modern comforts. Just a 15-minute walk or a short drive to Downtown Raleigh’s best spots, it offers fiber Wi-Fi, smart TVs in every room, and Bluetooth speakers.

We took careful detail to restore the beauty of the “Delany House”, while adding all the comforts of modern living: spacious kitchen with premium appliances and cookware, multiple smart TVs with streaming services, office space, private/fenced-in yard with grill station, al fresco dining and lounge area, and huge washer/dryer.

Pop over to one of Raleigh's neighborhood coffee shops or local hot spots — James Beard Award Winners, Ashley Christensen and Scott Crawford both have several spots nearby.

Walkable to parks and playgrounds, running/biking trails and of course, the best of Downtown Raleigh.

Our neighborhood is within immediate proximity to Downtown Raleigh’s best. It's a diverse and tight-knit community, considered the most up-and-coming in Downtown Raleigh. It’s a mishmash of all kinds of people -- young professionals, families with kids and retirees. If you're someone who's intimidated by an urban feel with the occasional gritty street corner or wayward drifter, trying another part of Raleigh might be best.

Looking to travel outside of downtown? We’re a close commute to I-40, which connects to the rest of the city and its surrounding areas, including Durham and Chapel Hill.

Parking is free, on-street, directly in front of our home. We do not offer off-street parking.

The History of our Home:
The Delany’s hosted legendary artists, musicians, dignitaries and intellects, such as jazz musicians Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway, opera great Marian Anderson, actor Paul Robeson, and activist sociologist and founder of the NAACP, W.E.B. Du Bois.

Like to golf? Guests can schedule an hour at a gold simulator lounge, .5mi from the house, on us!

Guests have exclusive access to the house during their stay. The fenced backyard is also for your private use. Note that the connecting yard is not a part of this listing.
