The third level at 5021 Sandlewood is the detail that changes the math on this home. A large recreation room, a fifth bedroom, a full bath, and abundant walk-in storage sit above an already complete home, turning the question of square footage into something else entirely. It is space that holds a household, absorbs its rhythms, and keeps every other room feeling exactly the right size.

That home is a custom-built residence on a beautifully landscaped 0.31-acre homesite in Midtown Raleigh, with five bedrooms, four full baths, and 3,624 square feet designed across three levels with intention at every turn. The main level is anchored by a kitchen built for the way people actually live: an oversized island with bar seating, a walk-in pantry, a dry bar, a dedicated coffee station, and a spacious casual dining area that makes the room the center of the house. The formal dining room just steps away adapts freely to a sitting room, a home office, or a dedicated dining space without any adjustment required.

Outside, the screened porch steps down to an expansive stone patio that looks out over a private, fenced backyard. The outdoor program is generous and private in equal measure. The main-level guest suite and the functional mudroom off the two-car garage keep daily life organized and arriving guests comfortable from the moment they walk in.

The primary suite on the second level earns its designation. An attached private office or flex room extends the suite beyond a bedroom and into something more considered. Two additional bedrooms and a spacious bonus room keep the floor versatile and complete.

Moments from North Hills, the emerging Innovation District, and I-440, and twelve minutes from Downtown Raleigh, this home is positioned in the part of the city where infrastructure, amenity, and access converge. The location performs. The home was built to match it.

Move with Certainty.
