This 4-bedroom, 5 full bath, 1 half bath home offers 4,151 square feet on a beautifully landscaped and manicured .27-acre homesite. Enjoy an exceptional ITB location within walking distance to Five Points and just minutes to North Hills/Midtown, the Village District, and downtown Raleigh. A rare find, this home offers the convenience of a true ''city home'' while living like a private retreat--an oasis in the heart of Raleigh with a backyard that feels secluded, peaceful, and far removed from the pace of everyday life. Built in 2019, the home offers timeless curb appeal with a 4-sided brick exterior, Cedar Timber accents and shutters, stone front porch, and extensive professional landscaping. The backyard is designed for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining, featuring a large paver patio, custom-designed firepit with sitting wall, six-foot privacy fence, mature hardwood trees, and extensive plantings. The covered veranda is a standout outdoor living space with stone floors and steps, iron railings, Cedar posts, tongue-and-groove stained ceiling, ceiling speakers, ceiling fans, wood privacy screening, wainscoting, and a see-through gas log fireplace with brick surround. Inside, the main level includes hardwood floors through the primary living areas, detailed crown molding, recessed lighting, ceiling speakers, and designer finishes. The dining room features a tray ceiling, wainscoting, chandelier, and arched opening, while the family room offers built-in cabinetry and shelving, a gas log fireplace with designer mantel, and sliding doors opening to the back porch. The kitchen is appointed with a huge island, farm sink, quartzite countertops, a 48-inch Wolf range, designer vent hood, quartz perimeter countertops, full-extension drawers, under-cabinet lighting, built-in refrigerator, paneled dishwasher, stainless microwave, glass-front upper cabinets with lighting, and designer backsplash extending to the ceiling. A butler's pantry with wine cabinet and a separate pantry with wood built-in shelving add even more function. The first-floor primary suite includes hardwood floors, designer ceiling details, motorized shades, and direct access to the back porch. The spa-like bath features dual designer vanities with marble tops, wall sconces, a large soaking tub, separate makeup vanity, and a custom walk-in tile shower to the ceiling with rain head, handheld, and wall showerhead. The custom walk-in closet includes built-ins, drawers, glass sweater cabinets, and hardwood flooring. Additional main-level features include a well-appointed laundry room with built-ins, quartz countertops, undermount sink, designer tile floor, chandelier, and wall sconce. Upstairs, the loft offers a built-in desk and cabinetry for a home office, and two walk-in closets. Secondary bedrooms feature upgraded carpet, crown molding, designer shades, custom walk-in closets, and beautifully finished baths with subway tile or custom walk-in tile showers. The bonus room, which can function as a 5th bedroom, includes French doors, a huge walk-in closet, and a full bath with custom tile shower and quartz countertop vanity. A large walk-in storage area over the garage and a custom mudroom with built-ins, bench seat, cubbies, and shelving complete the home. Recent seller improvements and upgrades include substantial landscaping and backyard enhancements, irrigation and smart system additions, gutter leaf guards, ceiling speakers, automatic blinds, stair carpet, security cameras/system, and more. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully cared for since being built in 2019, this home presents in exceptional condition and is truly move-in ready.
