Timeless elegance meets exceptional craftsmanship in this truly one-of-a-kind estate in Raleigh. Opportunities like this are rare, a home with this level of history, character, and presence seldom comes to market.
Originally part of a larger historic tract, this residence was thoughtfully constructed using reclaimed materials from the early 1800s, including heart pine flooring, handcrafted brick, intricate millwork, exposed beams, statement mantels, and leaded glass from the Cosby Heartt House originally located in downtown Raleigh. Every detail tells a story, blending old world charm with modern livability.
A grand staircase creates a striking first impression, while 10-foot ceilings enhance the sense of space and flow throughout the home. Designed for both comfort and functionality, the main level features a spacious primary suite with dual baths and a private sitting room, along with two dedicated offices.
The kitchen is both inviting and well equipped, opening to a hearth room, breakfast area, and a light-filled sunroom, creating a natural gathering space for everyday living and entertaining.
Outdoors, a beautifully landscaped setting surrounds a stunning in-ground pool, offering a private retreat. The pool house, built in 2010, is thoughtfully appointed with a covered porch, fireplace, gas grill, and full bath, extending the home's entertaining capabilities.
With its rich history, thoughtful design, and exceptional setting, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive property in Raleigh.
