Located in one of Raleigh's most sought-after Inside the Beltline (ITB) neighborhoods, this exceptional home is just steps from Glenwood Village, Oberlin Village, The Village District, and Five Points, where you can walk to coffee shops, boutiques, grocery stores, restaurants, yoga and pilates studios, and more--all while living on a serene block that combines the vibrancy of city living with community charm and access to top-rated schools. The main level is anchored by a chef's kitchen featuring state-of-the-art stainless appliances, three ovens, a microwave / convection unit, pot filler, exhaust hood, natural marble countertops, and a butler's pantry with sink, garbage disposal, dishwasher, and walk-in pantry. Just off the kitchen, the breakfast room is wrapped in windows with wainscoting and a two-sided fireplace shared with the covered screened porch, while the family room offers a coffered ceiling, custom built-ins, a gas stone surround fireplace with wall-mounted outlets, and 12'x8' sliding doors that fold into an 8'x8' opening for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The luxurious primary suite includes a tray ceiling, a gas fireplace with sitting area, and access to a private veranda, while the spa-inspired master bath features 24x24 tile floors, a seamless glass shower with three shower heads, his-and-hers soft-close marble vanities, plantation-shuttered windows, and separate spacious walk-in closets--one custom designed with drawers and shelving and the other with built-in wood storage. Secondary bedrooms are equally well-appointed, each with walk-in closets and ensuite baths, one finished in Calcutta quartz and the other in marble mirroring the primary bath's elegance. Throughout the home, crystal chandeliers with medallions, extensive millwork, hardwood floors, a formal sitting and dining room, a study with French doors and built-ins, a hidden bonus room, back staircase, and a mudroom with dual benches, cubbies, hooks, and wainscoting reflect thoughtful design and livability. The garage is oversized with epoxy-finished flooring, insulated wood-trimmed doors, and a utility sink, while the systems include a natural gas recirculating tankless water heater providing unlimited hot water without delay, spray foam insulation, whole-system allergen defense with MERV 11 air filters in both zones, and a conditioned crawl space. Exterior features include brick entry monuments, three gas lanterns, including two mounted on brick wing walls, frame the approach to the residence, where an oversized solid mahogany front door with beveled glass and Schlage smart lock sets the tone for the custom craftsmanship within composite and cementitious siding with LP SmartSide board-and-batten detail, stone paver driveway and walkways, simulated divided light windows, flood lights, covered front and rear porches with bead board ceilings, and a landscaped, fenced yard with evergreens for privacy. This property combines timeless architecture with modern efficiency in a walkable ITB location, offering unmatched luxury, convenience, and community.
