Custom-built in 2020 and upgraded with more than $100K in improvements since 2024, this 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath, 4,358 sq ft home sits on a private 0.69-acre lot in The Sanctuary at Yates Mill in Raleigh. It has two main-level suites, a dedicated home theater, and a screened porch with a stone fireplace. The main level has 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and an open plan centered on the chef's kitchen. The kitchen has a commercial-grade gas cooktop with pot filler under a custom wood-trimmed hood, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a large island, a walk-in pantry, and a built-in refrigerator. The family room has a coffered ceiling and custom built-ins, and 16-foot sliding glass doors open it fully to the screened porch, which has a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling. The first-floor primary suite has a shiplap trey ceiling, soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet. A second main-level suite, with wood beams, an arched window, and a private full bath, works as guest quarters or an office. Upstairs, the bonus room is now a home theater designed by Audio Advice with 7.4.1 Dolby Atmos (screen, projector, in-ceiling speakers convey). There is also a study with a newly finished adjoining flex room for a gym, studio, or hobby space. Outside, the wooded lot has professional landscaping and lighting, a stone patio with a gas line for grilling, a comprehensive drainage system (installed 2026), gutter guards, and a fenced-in backyard. The oversized 3-car garage (2 side-entry, 1 front-entry) has a polyurea-coated floor. The home is minutes from I-40/I-440, NC State, and downtown Raleigh, and about 3 miles from both Historic Yates Mill County Park and Lake Johnson's greenway loop.
