Property Description

This is the rarest kind of opportunity: a home that gives you seclusion and serenity, while keeping you ten minutes from Downtown Raleigh. Yes, you read that right. Welcome to your timeless brick home, nestled on over 2 wooded acres of private, peaceful land — a personal retreat that feels worlds away, yet is close enough to all the vibrancy of the city. This two-story stunner is the perfect balance of classic elegance and warm, livable charm. As soon as you arrive, you'll feel it: the kind of presence only a property like this has — mature trees, a long private driveway, and that unmistakable sense of arrival. Step inside and the details start speaking for themselves. The main level features a pristine living room/office, a private formal dining room with chair rail molding, and rich hardwood floors that flow throughout much of the main floor, complemented by crown molding that elevates every space. At the center of it all? A double-sided brick fireplace that anchors both the family room and the kitchen — warming your mornings and lighting up your evenings, whether you're whipping up dinner or cozying up with a book. And speaking of kitchens — this one delivers. Think granite countertops, tile backsplash, raised panel floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, gas range, and a central island ready for prep, entertaining, or just gathering with the ones you love. A charming bay window in the eat-in area frames gorgeous wooded views — so every meal comes with a side of nature. The main level also offers something every home needs but few deliver: a first-floor guest suite, ideal for extended stays or multi-generational living. Upstairs, the Primary Suite is everything you've hoped for: a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like En Suite bath with dual vanities and a large walk-in shower wrapped in marble tile. The Bonus Room on the second floor, complete with a wet bar, offers a gorgeous flex space — perfect for a home theater, game room, gym, or a play room. The possibilities are yours to define. Now let's talk about the real magic — the land. Over 2 acres of wooded bliss, completely private, and beautifully quiet. This is the kind of place where you sip your morning coffee in the sunroom, listening to the birds chirping, or wind down with a glass of wine on the large back deck, the forest as your backdrop and peace as your soundtrack. Tranquility. Privacy. Elegance. Proximity. You don't have to choose. This home gives you all of it. So here's your chance to own a slice of the good life — a classic Raleigh abode that brings nature to your doorstep while keeping the city at your fingertips. No City Tax and No HOA fees either! NEW ROOF in 2022 with transferable warranty.
