Spectacular property in the heart of Raleigh. An older home was lovingly renovated and expanded by the prior owner; tax records now state the effective year built as 2016. Delightful touches throughout give a nod to the original craftsmanship, including retention of original masonry walls. The front entry was opened up to flow directly into the fully-updated kitchen and living area with the original fireplace. Brick archways lead to the modern addition: an open plan living/dining room with vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows. A new first-floor primary suite with vaulted beam ceilings leads to a luxe bath with a walk-in shower, soaking tub, huge closet with built-ins and center island. Seller added extensive landscaping, irrigation, solar panels, Level 2 EV outlet, and sealed crawlspace. The home offers quick access to major highways, medical centers, NC Museum of Art, Crabtree Valley Mall, North Hills, and more. A path at the end of the cul-de-sac leads to the Greenway, connecting with Umstead Park. A rare opportunity for a truly unique property!
