Property Description
A spectacular opportunity in a prime inside the beltline location. This private oasis sits on a half-acre lot and offers parking for 5 cars -plus with a 3-car detached and a 2-car attached garage as well a plenty of driveway. The detached garage also has roughly 880 square feet of unfinished space that would make great rental apartment, home office, woodworking shop, artists loft or home gym. Plumbing and electrical in garage. This masterpiece of a home was the last home built by legendary Raleigh custom home builder Grady T Ferrell, Jr. Having built this beauty for his family, he spared no expense on materials and finish levels. The fine craftsmanship is emblematic of the era (built in 2006) and is just not available in many of the newly built homes today. The home offers over 4500 Sq Ft, 4 Bedrooms, 4 full baths and 3 - half baths. You'll love the large kitchen with beautiful cherry toned mahogany cabinetry, plenty of granite counter space and bar seating at the island. The island features a gas cooktop and ample workspace on the counter. A wall oven and microwave are right next to the island. A cozy keeping room with fireplace and breakfast room surround the kitchen. The large formal dining room is great for entertaining friends. The living room with fireplace sports views of the large back yard and covered sitting porch. A spacious guest suite rests at the end of home offering peace and quiet. The 2nd level features a large master suite with huge custom built in closet with cherry cabinetry. The master bath has a giant walk in shower and separates his and her areas with toilet and vanities. There are two other bedrooms with full baths and a huge bonus room measuring 29'x24'. On the 3rd level there is walk up attic about 35' x 30'. Plenty of storage in this home and over the detached garage. The home is in good overall condition with some updates and repairs done recently including crawl space work, a new water heater, new gutters, plumbing and electrical repairs. A pre-inspection of the home was done and is available for review so you can bid confidently on this home. With such good bones, size, privacy and location, buyers can put their own decor updates, design touches on this home and create a magnificent home of their dreams. This is one superb location nestled between Cameron Village, Hayes Barton and Five Points and only 3 miles to the heart of downtown Raleigh. With a little investment this home will return so much value and provide you with a private enclave and a wonderful luxury estate home bringing comfort and happiness. The home is accessed via a private driveway off of Churchill Drive.

Direction From Wade Ave at Oberlin Road go North on Oberlin to left on Chester Rd. Go about 2/10 of mile to left on Churchill. About 200' down on the right is the driveway to the home. There is a brick monument with the address just to the left of the driveway. So - the driveway to the home is NOT on Chester Road but on Churchill Drive. When youcome to end of driveway, it is best to turn to your right and park near the attached garage. When you leave, it is best to back up all the way into the drive that goes to the detached garage and head out of the driveway head first.
