About this home
Nestled in the serene elegance of Country Club Hills in ''Upper Buncombe'', this exquisite brick Colonial estate is a rare find—offering timeless design, gracious living, and an unbeatable location. Tucked away on a quiet cul de sac just minutes from Midtown, I-440, and a short drive to downtown Raleigh, this home offers the perfect blend of privacy and accessibility. Enjoy the proximity to the scenic greenway for walking, biking, or running amid natural beauty.
Built by the renowned Harold Carter, known for his classic craftsmanship and attention to detail, this residence boasts 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half baths. The main level stuns with soaring 10-foot ceilings, transom windows, elegant arched doorways, intricate crown molding, and gleaming hardwood floors that flow through bright, naturally lit rooms. A gracious foyer leads into expansive formal spaces and a thoughtfully designed open-concept kitchen, breakfast area, and den that seamlessly connects to a cozy family room with one of two gas log masonry fireplaces and lovely bookcases. The kitchen hosts a center island, butler's pantry, walk-in pantry, and dry bar, perfect for entertaining family and friends.
Step outside to a covered back porch and patio—ideal for relaxing or hosting guests. The oversized two-car rear-entry garage offers additional convenience. Upstairs, enjoy a generous bonus room and a third-floor walk-up attic, already plumbed for a bathroom and ready to be finished for more bedrooms or living space.
Meticulously maintained by the original owners, this home has a three year old roof and recent hot water heaters. The possibilities are endless. This is refined Raleigh living at its best.
