The lifestyle that Historic Oakwood delivers, 225 Elm Street earns at every turn. A fully restored architectural original set along one of downtown Raleigh's most distinguished residential streets, where original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and a century of preserved character have been layered with curated modern finishes throughout. This home… Read More does not come to market often, and when it does, it does not stay long. The signature sunroom, framed by four sets of French doors, anchors the home's relationship with its outdoor resort: a heated saltwater pool with waterfall wall, a freestanding brick fireplace, and built-in speakers that carry through the downstairs and outdoor living spaces year-round. Inside, the light-filled family room and study is anchored by a built-in desk, bookshelves, and dual corner cabinets in classic millwork. The dining room centers on a working wood-burning fireplace and flows into the breakfast room and kitchen, where a second gas log fireplace, custom island, two ovens, generous storage, walk-in laundry and pantry, and a dry bar area already plumbed for a sink define one of the most considered kitchen programs in the neighborhood. Three en-suite bedrooms deliver privacy on every level. The main-floor primary suite features a walk-in closet with custom shelving and drawers, a double vanity, a walk-in shower, and a freestanding claw foot soaking tub. A second en-suite bedroom is tucked at the rear of the first floor; a third en-suite bedroom is set upstairs alongside floored attic storage. Off-street parking, a driveway, and a separate fenced dog area round out a list of Oakwood rarities that give this address its lasting edge. Set moments from Person Street dining, Mordecai Historic Park, and the full energy of downtown Raleigh, 225 Elm Street is a home that holds its character the way only a fully restored Oakwood original can. For the buyer who has been watching, this is the one. Read Less
