Thoughtfully improved and cared for by its owners, this is a home with the character and maturity that come from considered investment. Designed for a life that can be both expansive and intimate, the property offers room to gather, retreat, create, host - and even generate income - all within a setting that has been carefully cultivated. The experience begins on the covered front porch and carries outdoors through a rear deck, leafy bistro courtyard strung with lights and a generous 42-by-42-foot patio made for everything from quiet mornings to long evenings with friends. Mature landscaping gives the property a sense of permanence and discovery, with apple, cherry and peach trees, three varieties of berries, and flowering gardens filled with roses, gardenias, camellias, jasmine and honeysuckle. Two driveways provide ample parking, with an EV charger conveniently located on each, and lead to a detached two-car garage with epoxy flooring, storage and a finished workshop. Above the garage, 305½ Windel Drive is a home of its own: a private 609-square-foot, one-bedroom ADU with separate exterior entrance, living area, full kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, custom closet storage, full bath, laundry and Mitsubishi mini-split systems. For four years, this inviting space has operated successfully as a five-star Airbnb, ranking among the top 1% of Airbnb properties in Raleigh—a proven income-producing asset that could just as easily welcome extended family, guests or a private workspace. Inside the 3,574-square-foot main home, generous spaces are balanced by thoughtful detail. The heart of the house is a spacious kitchen with quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, gold-accented designer tile, KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, five-burner cooktop, pendant lighting and a large walk-in pantry with custom wood shelving. An open dining area flows naturally into the light-filled family room, while a versatile main-level office with decorative wall trim, chair rail and crown molding offers a beautiful place to work or relax. The main-level owner's suite feels like a retreat within the home, anchored by a painted brick fireplace and wood mantel. A barn-style glass door opens to a striking private bath with marble-topped dual vanity, oversized walk-in shower, dual showerheads, handheld sprayers, tiled niche and frameless glass enclosure. A custom walk-in closet completes the suite. Upstairs, hardwood stairs open to an impressive 32-foot bonus room, flooded with light from numerous windows and two skylights and connected to the main level by a second staircase. Four generously sized bedrooms provide abundant flexibility, including two with ensuite baths, along with a hall bath and linen closet. Even the laundry room has been thoughtfully considered, with cabinetry, folding table, built-in ironing board and a tongue-and-groove ceiling. What makes this property distinctive is not simply its size, but the number of ways it can be lived in: a gracious family home, a place to gather, gardens to tend, room to work and make, private space for people you love, and an established income-producing residence of its own. That care is evident not only in what you see, but in how the home has been improved: all improvements completed during the sellers' ownership that required permitting were fully permitted, inspected and approved by the City of Raleigh. Furnishings are negotiable, offering the possibility of making the transition into this thoughtfully assembled home even more seamless. 305/305 1/2 Windel Drive offer the rare combination of beauty, flexibility, maturity and possibility - a home that has been carefully tended, not simply prepared for sale - in one of Raleigh's most desirable locations. ADU SF is included in total SF.
