This timeless estate sits on 1.40 acres in the prestigious gated community of Linville in North Raleigh. Originally built as a personal residence for a local realtor and builder, no detail was overlooked. The gourmet kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring custom wood cabinetry with unique hand-detailed craftsmanship, making each piece one of a kind. Ample cabinet space is complemented by an oversized walk-in pantry and a convenient butler's pantry. The expansive island includes a vegetable sink, and high-end Thermador appliances elevate the space, including a 6-burner gas range, double ovens, a warming drawer, a built-in refrigerator, and a commercial-grade exhaust system. Flowing seamlessly into the family room, a stunning stone centerpiece surrounds the fireplace, while a wall of windows fills the space with natural light and remote shades. French doors lead to a three-season vaulted EZE-Breeze room with its own stone fireplace. Meticulously maintained, this home boasts recent updates, including a new roof (2022), an elevator, fresh paint, updated fixtures, enhanced landscaping, a new powder room, a tankless water heater, and more—see Docs for the complete list. The private backyard oasis features a three-season screened porch, a deck with a new grill and permanent gas line, and space for a future pool. Perfect for multigenerational living, the home features an expansive main-floor owner's retreat spanning over 1,200 sq. ft. This luxurious space provides a Ritz-Carlton-style experience, complete with a vaulted sitting room, gas fireplace, deck access with a new grill and permanent gas line, and a custom-designed closet with built-ins, a granite-topped shoe island, and more. The spa-like bath includes dual vanities, a wrap-around mirror, and a spacious walk-in shower with dual showerheads. The study is a masterpiece ''man cave'', featuring custom-stained wood doors, a coffered ceiling with inlay, built-in cabinetry, and a gas fireplace with a hand-carved wood mantel. The formal dining room boasts a coffered ceiling, a designer light fixture, and intricate wainscoting and chair rail. Upstairs, a second master suite, along with two spacious bedrooms and a bonus/rec room, provides plenty of living space. The lower level offers a unique tri-level seating theater room with an updated 135'' screen, custom reclining chairs, fabric-upholstered walls, and an in-law suite. A restaurant-style bar with cherry-stained cabinets, updated pullouts, a refrigerator, dishwasher, and wine rack completes the space. The third floor offers a walk-up attic with spray foam insulation and a roughed-in bathroom, providing options for future expansion or extra storage. The estate's grand entrance features a circular driveway, stately pillared entry, and impeccably manicured grounds with landscape lighting, an irrigation system, and a fenced backyard. In today's market, rebuilding this exceptional home would cost $5M+! Community amenities include scenic walking trails, a pool, tennis courts, and a clubhouse.
