About this home
Custom-designed by Carter Skinner and built by John C. Sanders, this exceptional Drewry Hills residence offers a rare blend of architectural integrity, refined livability, and timeless appeal—gracefully positioned along the Crabtree Creek Greenway with a private, wooded backdrop just minutes from North Hills.
From the moment you arrive, the home conveys a sense of quiet elegance and permanence. A sweeping curved staircase anchors the entry, setting the tone for interiors defined by exquisite millwork, layered moldings, and thoughtfully proportioned spaces that feel both elevated and inviting. Designed for both everyday living and gracious entertaining, each room unfolds with intention and a seamless sense of flow.
Formal spaces include a dining room with Parisian-inspired ceiling detail and a richly appointed study wrapped in mahogany paneling, complete with coffered ceiling and custom built-ins—creating a warm, sophisticated environment for work or quiet reflection.
The main-level primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a gas log fireplace, intimate sitting area, dual walk-in closets, and a luxurious spa-like bath.
At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, appointed with Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, a generous center island, induction cooktop, double ovens, and a large walk-in pantry. A butler’s pantry with beverage refrigerator enhances both everyday convenience and entertaining. The adjoining breakfast room flows effortlessly into a light-filled sunroom, while the family room—anchored by built-in bookcases and a gas fireplace—offers a comfortable gathering space with views of the natural surroundings.
Outdoor living is equally compelling. A covered bluestone terrace with wood-burning fireplace extends the living space year-round, while steps lead to an expansive bluestone patio with built-in grill—perfectly positioned to enjoy the privacy and tranquility of the wooded greenway setting.
Upstairs, three spacious en-suite bedrooms provide comfort and privacy, complemented by a second laundry room and walk-up access to a two-story attic offering exceptional storage and flexibility. The walk-out lower level is designed for both recreation and relaxation, featuring a three-car garage prewired for EV charging, billiards room, fitness room, den, theater, and a wet bar with beverage fridge, dishwasher, and microwave—ideal for entertaining or extended living.
An elevator provides seamless access to all three finished levels, and thoughtful accessibility features throughout support ease of living for years to come, making this a home that effortlessly accommodates both present and future needs.
A rare offering in one of Raleigh’s most coveted neighborhoods—where timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and an unparalleled setting come together to create a truly enduring home....
