About this home
Tucked off Powell Drive in Raleigh, this architect-designed modern home delivers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a layout that punches well above its footprint by making every space work harder, brighter, and better. The location is ridiculously convenient. The design is intentional. And the indoor-outdoor connection is real.
The approach already feels different. A weathered Corten steel retention wall sets the tone. An approximately 11-foot accordion-style glass opening hints at what happens inside. The detached carport and exterior storage keep the front clean and functional. Between the home and carport, a fully fenced backyard and greenspace become part of the living experience outdoors.
Inside, tall ceilings, site-finished wood floors, and windows in every room make the space feel bigger than the footprint suggests. The kitchen stays clean and functional with Bosch appliances, an eat-in layout, electric cooking, and a convection microwave that doubles as a second oven. The open, main living area keeps sightlines clean, pulls in natural light from multiple directions, and uses every inch with intention.
Then the accordion-style glass door folds away and turns the back porch into another living room--complete with its own fireplace and enough space for coffee in the morning, drinks with friends, game days, or slow evenings outside. Open the wall and the entire house changes.
Upstairs, the house somehow gets even better. More sky, more light, more openness. Windows pull daylight in from multiple directions and give the level an unexpectedly airy feel. The primary suite includes an ensuite bath, while two additional bedrooms share a well-finished hall bath. One secondary bedroom makes the most of every inch with custom built-in bunks, integrated lighting, hidden storage, and details that feel practical and purposeful. Laundry upstairs keeps daily life efficient.
Behind the design, the house works smarter too. Five energy-efficient ductless mini-splits across two systems allow for higher ceilings and individualized comfort, with separate temperature control serving the main living spaces and each bedroom. A tankless water heater, sealed crawl space with exterior access, continuous ventilation strategy, and Google Fiber add efficiency to the everyday.
Location is one of the biggest advantages--tucked away but close to everything. Downtown Raleigh is just ~15 minutes away, with Carter-Finley Stadium, the NC State Fairgrounds, NC State University, and the NC Museum of Art all within ~3-5 minutes. Crossroads, Pullen Park, UNC REX Hospital, Crabtree, Downtown Cary, and RDU Airport are all within about 8-11 minutes, making daily life, game days, travel, and weekends easy.
Modern architecture that maximizes every inch of square footage and a location that keeps Raleigh close. Schedule your showing and come see why this one lives bigger than expected....
