Details

This place is huge, sitting on over 14 acres just north of Falls Lake. It's fully fenced and gated, so you've got serious privacy, but you're still close to RTP, RDU, and some good restaurants. The house has been completely redone with really nice finishes. You'll find a cool floating spiral staircase, and there are 11 garages, which is a lot. It's also got modern systems like a generator and a whole-house water filtration system.

The kitchen is impressive, with custom cabinets, a big island, and a cozy hearth room that opens to a screened-in porch with a fireplace, perfect for using year-round. The main bedroom is really something else. It has its own sitting room with a fireplace, a balcony, an office, and laundry. The his-and-hers dressing rooms are massive, with tons of custom cabinetry, shelving, and a big island. The lighting throughout the house is really well done, with recessed lights and some dramatic chandeliers.

There's also a separate suite that could work for guests, in-laws, or a nanny, with its own entrance. Down in the basement, there's a home theater, a gaming area, a gym with a sauna, a salon, a kitchenette, and another bedroom with its own bathroom.

Outside is where things get really interesting. There's a multi-level saltwater pool with a limestone deck, a spa, and waterfalls. The pool house has a fireplace and its own kitchenette. You've also got a full basketball court, a greenhouse, an outdoor kitchen with a grill, a kennel that can hold 6 dogs and has a wash station, and even a playground. And yes, there's a helipad.
