This Cross Gate home offers the rare chance to own a North Raleigh property in one of the area's most sought-after communities. Beautifully maintained, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on a secluded 0.93-acre cul-de-sac lot and blends timeless architecture with space, flexibility and privacy, alongside a serene, retreat-like backyard surrounded by mature trees. Inside, refinished Brazilian cherry hardwoods, graceful arched doorways, custom moldings, built-in features, and abundant natural light create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The welcoming foyer opens to a spacious family room anchored by a gas fireplace and custom built-ins. The family room flows into the kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances and a sunlit breakfast area, creating an ideal layout for everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond the family room, a large deck overlooks the patio, beautifully landscaped garden, and private, tree-lined backyard. The home's unique position within the neighborhood reduces all traffic noise, adding to the backyard's sense of privacy. Designed for comfortable main-level living, the spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet and en-suite bath with a cathedral ceiling, dual vanities, whirlpool tub, and walk-in shower. A main-level guest suite with a full bath provides flexibility for visitors or multigenerational living, while the conveniently located laundry room just off the kitchen adds everyday ease. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a large bonus room with built-ins provide exceptional versatility, with charming garden views from each room. Two unfinished walk-in attics offer abundant storage and future expansion potential. Recent updates include freshly painted interior and exterior trim, refinished hardwood floors, and a roof replaced in 2021. A transferable American Home Shield home warranty offers additional peace of mind for the next owner. Cross Gate residents enjoy sought-after neighborhood amenities, including a community pool, tennis courts, playground, scenic walking trails, and lake access. This home is also just minutes from North Raleigh's premier shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences.
