Positioned on nearly two acres with approximately 140 feet of lake frontage, the setting is nothing short of spectacular--where morning mist rises over the water and the rhythmic glide of crew teams and passing boats create a daily backdrop that feels both peaceful and alive. Spanning just over 4,500 square feet, this thoughtfully designed home balances clean, contemporary lines with warm, inviting finishes. From the moment you arrive, the imported Crittall-style front door from Witham, England sets the tone for the level of craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, white oak floors carry across the main level, leading you into light-filled living spaces that celebrate the home's connection to the water. The family room is a true showpiece, anchored by a floating fireplace and framed by dramatic, rounded two-story windows that draw your eye directly to the lake beyond. Every space has been designed to maximize these views, creating a seamless dialogue between indoors and out. At the heart of the home, the fully renovated kitchen is both functional and stunning, featuring Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, marble countertops, an oversized center island with generous bar seating, and a well-appointed scullery-like pantry. Accordion-style doors open completely to the pool terrace, allowing effortless indoor-outdoor living. Entertaining is elevated with a curved wet bar complete with wine display, dual refrigerator drawers, freezer drawers, and a wine refrigerator--perfectly positioned for gatherings that spill out onto the travertine pool deck. The outdoor spaces are equally compelling. An infinity-edge pool with a spillover spa overlooks the lake, creating a resort-like experience in your own backyard. Just beyond, a separate screened porch and deck provide a peaceful retreat for sunset views, evening cocktails, or quiet mornings surrounded by nature. The grounds are a true gardener's paradise, thoughtfully curated with a rich variety of plantings including fig trees, Japanese maples, red buckeyes, Chinese fringetrees, and an array of seasonal flowering bulbs that bring color and texture throughout the year. From the pool terrace, a lush, sweeping lawn stretches gracefully toward the lake, creating a sense of openness and serenity that is rarely found. Whether your days are spent tending the raised-bed garden, kayaking along the shoreline, birdwatching, raising chickens, or simply unwinding in the quiet beauty of the landscape, this property offers an inspiring and deeply personal connection to the outdoors. The home features three bedrooms, including two luxurious primary suites--one on the main level and one upstairs--offering flexibility and privacy. The main-level primary suite is a serene haven with sliding doors to the patio, a spacious walk-in closet with its own private laundry, and a beautifully renovated bath featuring a marble candle wall and a curved walk-in shower with a rain head. A sculptural Canadian curved glass staircase leads to the upper levels, where a bonus room captures sweeping views of the lake and grounds. A second laundry room adds convenience, while the third-floor loft provides an ideal space for a home office, studio, or playroom. Additional highlights include a two-car garage, security system, exercise room, and a roof replaced with both shingles and standing-seam metal by Baker Roofing. When the former owner completed renovations, the home was certified as a 2015 rebuild, reflecting extensive updates to plumbing, electrical, and major systems. This is a truly special offering--where striking design meets an unforgettable waterfront setting, just minutes from the heart of Raleigh.
