NEW PRICE!!! Featured on HGTV's Love It or List It yet hidden on nearly five wooded acres in North Raleigh. This home feels like the kind of place people spend years trying to find -- private, atmospheric, flexible, and impossible to replicate. Creek frontage. Pond adjacency. Towering trees. A… Read More fully insulated barn/workshop. Room to expand later if you want a larger estate footprint and somehow, you're still in Raleigh. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home takes the usual ''farm character house'' story and removes the scary expensive unknowns. There's a brand-new roof. Two brand-new HVAC systems. Refreshed paint. The major designer renovation is already complete. The hard stuff is done. Now the property gets to be fun. Inside, the house punches way above its square footage. Refinished pine floors, painted beams, oversized windows, layered textures, and a wood-burning fireplace create a vibe that feels more like weekend retreat than suburban Raleigh. The renovated kitchen was designed by the best and built for living -- quartz counters, oversized island, tall custom cabinetry, pull-out storage, farmhouse sink, soft-close drawers, and enough gathering space to turn random Tuesday nights into ''everyone somehow ended up at our house again.'' The main-floor primary suite provides separation and privacy, while upstairs offers two additional bedrooms, a renovated bath, and surprisingly generous storage. A tucked-away office or flex space overlooking the property makes working from home feel substantially productive. And then there's the barn. Not ''extra storage.'' Not a shed pretending to matter. A fully insulated, spray-foamed flex space with power, loft storage, fans, workshop capacity, entertaining potential, bike storage, and true 2-car garage functionality. Park vehicles. Build motorcycles. Host game nights. Create a gym. Set up a studio. Store outdoor gear without sacrificing living space inside the house. It gives the property real compound energy -- the kind buyers immediately start planning their lives around before they even leave the driveway. Outside is where this property completely separates itself from the market. Kids can build forts or camp in the woods. Friends can spread out around a firepit after birthday or graduation parties. Trails cut through the trees. Deer move through the property in the mornings. Hummingbirds pass the office windows in warmer months. The land gives you freedom most buyers forgot was even possible this close to the city. And here's the part smart buyers will notice immediately: this property still leaves room for the future. Enjoy the renovated home exactly as it is today or hold nearly five private acres in one of North Raleigh's hardest-to-recreate settings while preserving long-term estate potential down the road. Nearby conveniences include Falls Lake recreation (~11 mins), Lafayette Village (~12 mins), North Hills shopping and dining (~16 mins), RDU Airport (~15 mins), RTP (~17 mins), and quick I-540 access for commuting throughout the Triangle. This is not a polished-box subdivision house pretending to have personality. This place actually has one. Come walk the property once and you'll feel the difference. Read Less
