Property Description

A hidden oasis just minutes from downtown Raleigh. Set on 2.49 beautifully landscaped acres with no HOA, this distinctive property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and exceptional convenience. Solar Panels provide low energy costs. Extensive gardens, mature landscaping, and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces transform the grounds into a private retreat—a true landscaper's dream. Inside, timeless hardwood floors flow throughout the home, complemented by an updated kitchen with a dedicated scullery tucked just off the main kitchen, providing additional workspace and storage while keeping everyday preparation discreetly out of sight. Interior shutters throughout add timeless character and an elegant finishing touch, while the inviting living room features a fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming gathering space. Updated baths and thoughtfully refreshed interiors further enhance the home's sophisticated, move-in-ready appeal. The property's expansive grounds are one of its most distinctive features. Approximately two acres have been extensively and intentionally landscaped with established gardens, mature plantings, and strategically planned outdoor spaces, creating a private sanctuary with beauty and character at every turn. There is room to garden, entertain, relax, and enjoy the exceptional setting. With no HOA, the property offers a rare degree of flexibility. The home sits on a double lot, presenting potential for future division and sale of the additional lot, subject to applicable approvals and restrictions—an uncommon opportunity for added flexibility and future value. Ideally located just off Lake Wheeler Road and minutes from Lake Wheeler, Yates Mill, downtown Raleigh, Costco, Harris Teeter, and everyday conveniences. This is a truly special offering where beautifully landscaped acreage, sophisticated updates, thoughtful amenities, and proximity to the heart of Raleigh come together to create an exceptional private retreat.
