Welcome to a rare Inside-the-Beltline retreat where refined design, everyday functionality, and a peaceful wooded setting come together in one of Raleigh’s most compelling locations. Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac backing directly to Hymettus Woods Park, this turnkey home makes an unforgettable first impression with a gas lantern, double front doors, herringbone hardwoods, and a dramatic two-story foyer. Hardwood floors run throughout the home, while elevated details including 8-foot doorways, 10-foot ceilings, upgraded balusters, and extensive trim work create a polished, cohesive feel from top to bottom.

The main level is designed for both entertaining and daily ease, with a formal dining room, a private office with its own en-suite bath, and a thoughtfully placed drop zone and laundry room with sink just off the garage. In the kitchen, ceiling-height cabinetry, a herringbone backsplash, quartz countertops, a large gathering island, and a Wolf range anchor the heart of the home. The adjoining living room is equally inviting, with coffered ceilings, reclaimed wood shelving, custom cabinetry, and a marble fireplace. Just beyond, the screened porch with porcelain tile flooring and its own brick fireplace opens to a deck with a pre-installed gas line, creating a seamless extension for outdoor dining and entertaining. The first-floor primary suite offers a private escape overlooking the wooded backyard, complete with soaring ceilings, double vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, separate powder room, and an oversized walk-in closet. Upstairs, three generous bedrooms, large walk-in closets, hardwood floors, and a spacious flex room provide exceptional versatility for lounging, media, play, or game nights.

Life here is as much about the setting as it is about the home itself. Backing to Hymettus Woods Park, this property enjoys immediate access to one of Raleigh’s tucked-away green spaces, known for its native plantings and natural footpath. Nearby, Ridgewood Shopping Center adds everyday convenience with local favorites including Drift Coffee & Kitchen, while the Village District brings a classic Raleigh lifestyle with more than 100 shops, cafés, restaurants, and services across six walkable city blocks. Together, these destinations create a neighborhood experience that feels connected, convenient, and distinctly Raleigh.

From this central Raleigh location, you are exceptionally well positioned to enjoy some of the area’s most popular destinations within minutes. The Village District offers shopping, dining, and daily essentials in one of the city’s most established retail hubs, while North Hills delivers a true live-work-play environment with 130-plus shops and restaurants, hotels, spas, gathering spaces, a 60,000-square-foot fitness center, a dine-and-recline cinema, and year-round events. Fenton expands those options even further with curated retail, award-winning chefs, entertainment, and an energetic social scene in Cary. With quick access to Wade Avenue and the broader Raleigh road network, this home offers the rare ability to feel tucked away in the trees while staying close to the best of Midtown, Downtown-adjacent living, and some of the Triangle’s most desirable shopping and dining destinations.

This is elevated ITB living with timeless finishes, thoughtful spaces, and a setting that feels private without sacrificing convenience. Contact The Coley Group for more information or to schedule a private showing, we can’t wait to show you Raleigh’s best.
