Escape the hustle of the city into your own private forest — without sacrificing a single urban convenience. Finding an estate-sized lot that offers a deep, mature-tree buffer while remaining fully connected to city water and city sewer is a true needle in a haystack for the Triangle area — and this property delivers exactly that rare combination. Set on 1.99 private acres in the sought-after "Woods at Umstead" neighborhood, this estate-style home backs to protected HOA common space, ensuring uninterrupted natural beauty and panoramic forest views for years to come. Despite its secluded, woodland setting, the location could not be more convenient: 1 mile walk or Bike to Umstead State Park, just 2 miles to SAS, UNC Rex Hospital, 3.5 miles to the NC Museum of Art and Lenovo Center, and only 20-30 minutes to, Research Triangle Park, RDU International Airport, DPAC and Downtown Raleigh. Arrival & Curb Appeal A long, elegant, winding driveway sweeps up through mature hardwoods to this stately 2014-built residence, creating a memorable sense of arrival while keeping the home privately tucked away from the cul-de-sac. Interior — Approx. 4,200 Square Feet | 5 Bedrooms | 4.5 Baths Step inside to an open-concept floor plan flooded with natural light and layered with timeless wood detailing throughout. The heart of the home is a warm and inviting Keeping Room with fireplace, flowing into a casual breakfast gathering area and a true chef's kitchen — outfitted with granite countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances, an oversized pantry, and a Butler's pantry with sink. The main-floor owner's suite is a private retreat of its own, offering direct access to a 12' x 17' screened porch. A second main-level bedroom with its own attached full bath makes an ideal guest or in-law suite. Rounding out the main floor is a dedicated home office, a formal dining room for entertaining, laundry room, and a spacious family room anchored by a dual-sided fireplace shared with the Screen Porch. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and an 8' x 10' loft — with the flexibility to convert the fifth bedroom into a playroom, media room, or second home office to suit your lifestyle. Outdoor Living — A True Resort-Style Retreat The outdoor spaces are just as thoughtfully designed as the interior. Unwind on the screened porch overlooking a sprawling lawn, gather around the custom stone patio, or cozy up beside the integrated outdoor fireplace on cool evenings. Whether hosting lively get-togethers or enjoying a quiet night under the stars, this backyard oasis delivers year-round enjoyment — and with ample level space remaining, it's pool-ready for future expansion. Quality & Craftsmanship Throughout Pride of ownership is evident in every detail: a sealed crawlspace with dehumidifier, plantation shutters, engineered hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, and abundant storage throughout. The oversized 3-car garage features durable epoxy flooring, and a Rinnai Tankless water heater. Homes offering this rare blend of privacy, acreage, in-town convenience, and move-in-ready craftsmanship simply don't come along often. Schedule your private tour today and experience the rare beauty and lifestyle this exceptional Raleigh estate has to offer.
