Ideally located just minutes from downtown Raleigh, Lenovo Center, and a short drive to RDU International Airport, the setting offers rare convenience without sacrificing privacy or style. From the moment you step inside, the home feels open and intentional. Ten-foot ceilings and wide, site-finished hardwood floors anchor the main level, where the living room flows naturally into the kitchen and dining areas. Walls of glass line the rear of the home, drawing sunlight deep into the space throughout the day and creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Sliding glass doors open to a covered rear deck with a wood-burning fireplace, extending daily living outdoors and offering a quiet retreat for evening gatherings or relaxed weekends. A formal dining room at the front of the home adds an elegant counterpoint, ideal for hosting dinners and celebrations. The kitchen is designed for both beauty and performance, with quartzite countertops, a generous center island, a gas cooktop, and stainless steel appliances that support everyday cooking as well as entertaining. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings continue the sense of openness, with hardwood floors throughout and no carpet. The primary suite is filled with natural light from expansive windows and offers a calm escape, complete with a custom-organized walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath featuring quartzite countertops, double sinks, and a walk-in shower. Built with comfort and efficiency in mind, the home includes a metal roof, closed and conditioned crawlspace, and individual mini-split systems that allow for personalized climate control throughout. A detached two-car carport with rear alley access provides convenient off-street parking while preserving the home's clean street presence. This is modern living thoughtfully executed, where architecture, light, and location come together to create something truly special. Schedule your private tour and experience elevated urban living at 236 Powell Street.
