Trusted Home Renovation in Five Points
Five Points is the neighborhood every Raleigh buyer wants and few can find — a walkable, tree-canopied community centered around the iconic Five Points intersection where Glenwood, Fairview, and Whitaker Mill converge. The village center features beloved local restaurants, boutiques, and gathering spots that give Five Points a character found nowhere else in Raleigh.
The residential streets surrounding Five Points feature some of Raleigh's finest historic homes — Craftsman bungalows, Tudor-style cottages, Cape Cods, and mid-century ranches dating from the 1920s through the 1960s. These homes offer incredible bones, mature landscaping, and architectural details that cannot be replicated, but they often need thoughtful renovation to meet modern living standards.
Home On specializes in the kind of sensitive renovation that Five Points homes demand. We preserve the character-defining details — original trim, hardwood floors, built-ins, and proportions — while updating kitchens, bathrooms, electrical, and mechanical systems to modern standards. Our team understands that Five Points homeowners chose their neighborhood for its character, and every renovation we complete enhances rather than erases that character.

Common Questions
Five Points Renovation FAQs
Do Five Points homes require special renovation permits?
Five Points is not in a designated historic district with design review (unlike Oakwood or Boylan Heights), so renovations follow standard Raleigh building permits. However, Home On approaches every Five Points project with historic sensitivity, preserving the character that makes these homes so valuable. We match architectural details, maintain proportions, and use materials that complement the original construction.
Can you modernize a Five Points kitchen without losing character?
Absolutely — this is our specialty. We blend modern functionality (quartz countertops, quality appliances, task lighting) with period-appropriate details (shaker cabinetry, subway tile, bin pulls) to create kitchens that feel both modern and timeless. The key is understanding the home's era and designing the kitchen to feel intentional rather than transplanted from a different house.
