Description

Call it a rare gem, unicorn, or needle in a haystack -- this lovely townhome has a near-perfect location within the very pretty neighborhood of Carnegie Park. At the back of the community, an end unit, with beautiful trees and greenery in front, back and to the side. It's both lovely and peaceful on the outside, and the inside is handsomely updated: the entire master bathroom was gutted and redone in 2025, the downstairs full bath received a new vanity in 2022, the deck has been rebuilt with Trex,...Call it a rare gem, unicorn, or needle in a haystack -- this lovely townhome has a near-perfect location within the very pretty neighborhood of Carnegie Park. At the back of the community, an end unit, with beautiful trees and greenery in front, back and to the side. It's both lovely and peaceful on the outside, and the inside is handsomely updated: the entire master bathroom was gutted and redone in 2025, the downstairs full bath received a new vanity in 2022, the deck has been rebuilt with Trex, HVAC and water heater all only five years old. The floorplan is bright and airy, the bedrooms surprisingly large, and the walk-in attic truly enormous. Upstairs is an open loft currently used as a work-from-home space; downstairs receives bountiful natural light thanks to skylights and it being an end unit. Turnover in Carnegie Park is always low; units this beautifully located and upgraded are exceedingly rare. The neighborhood offers a swimming pool and the location puts you five minutes to the Rex Hospital medical complex, Olde Raleigh shopping plaza, Crabtree Mall, and ten minutes to Lenovo Center (Go Canes). Indeed, the west side of Raleigh is thriving of late and some of the newest hot spots will be at your doorstep.. you'll enjoy fresh bagels in the morning at Jeff's Bagel Run, brunch at Glenlake Cafe, nearby tacos, and weekends at Crooked Hammock Brewery.
