Property Description

A Williamsborough gem! Elegant brick two-story prominently positioned on an oversized, .83-acre lot in one of Raleigh's most sought-after neighborhoods. The Carter Skinner design features a classic, stucco-like brick facade with symmetrical lines that merges the light-filled interior with the exceptional outdoor spaces. Offering 5 bedrooms, 6 full baths and one half-bath across 7,200 square feet, with the finest craftsmanship and magnificent views of the pool and meticulously landscaped grounds. Built by Hollingsworth + White in 2005 to the highest standards -- 10' ceilings (9'/up), 3 fireplaces, Brazilian Cherry floors, exquisite moldings and built-ins, custom cabinetry, and high-end lighting and hardware. The main level includes an expansive entrance hall with 20' ceilings, encircling stairs with decorative metal railing and arched openings into the the generously proportioned living and dining rooms. The centrally located kitchen is a culinary dream with adjoining breakfast nook and Butler's pantry, oversized island, professional grade Viking and KitchenAid appliances, and easy access to the family room and veranda. The inviting family room features a corner fireplace with cast-stone mantle, generous windows, and French doors leading to the wrap-around covered porch. The opposing wing includes the primary bedroom retreat with spa-like bath featuring double vanities, whirlpool tub, separate shower and two walk-in closets. There is also a secluded sitting room and handsome mahogany paneled study with coffered ceiling and built-in cabinets. The second floor is accessed by the front or back stairs and has an open landing with four large bedrooms and four en suite baths with large walk-in closets. The third-floor flex space could serve as a rec room, exercise or media room. The veranda spans the back of the house and includes a fireplace with stunning views of the pool and private backyard with mature landscaping. The circular driveway includes a slate arrival court with ample parking and easy access to the side porch and 2-car garage. Excellent schools and wonderful neighbors -- it's all here. Extraordinary property!
