A truly exceptional in-town retreat, this remarkable property offers just under three acres of privacy and seclusion, tucked away at the end of a private driveway in a beautiful wooded setting inside the Beltline. Surrounded by mature trees and backing to more than six acres of City of Raleigh-owned land along Crabtree Creek, the property offers an extraordinary sense of space and tranquility rarely found in the city.
Inside, gracious formal rooms blend seamlessly with comfortable, inviting living spaces. Three interior fireplaces, handsome built-in bookcases, accent lighting, and thoughtful architectural details create warmth and character throughout. The expansive family room and kitchen form the heart of the home, featuring an open layout and dramatic 13-foot ceilings—perfect for everyday living and entertaining. A convenient wet bar adds to the home’s exceptional entertaining ability, and a peacefully positioned main-level office provides an ideal work-from-home retreat.
The main-level primary suite is a private retreat unto itself, with separate his-and-hers full bathrooms and walk-in closets, plus a charming sitting room ideal for morning coffee, reading, or quiet relaxation. A second main-level guest suite provides exceptional flexibility for family or overnight guests.
The outdoor living spaces are truly spectacular. A large screened porch overlooks the wooded landscape and feels like a private mountain treehouse, complete with a stone fireplace and serene views of the surrounding woods. Beyond, a spacious tiered deck features beautiful Ipe flooring, accent lighting, and a built-in gas grill, creating an exceptional setting for entertaining or relaxing among the trees. A stream meanders below, further enhancing the peaceful, natural setting.
The lower level offers additional bedrooms, a bonus room, and an extensive walk-in storage area, providing abundant space for guests, recreation, hobbies, and storage. With its combination of nearly three private acres, exceptional architectural character, generous entertaining spaces, and extraordinary outdoor living, this is a truly unique property offering a rare sense of privacy and nature in the heart of Raleigh.
