507 Marlowe Road Raleigh , NC 27609

A Georgian brick masterpiece prominently positioned in the heart of the highly coveted Drewry Hills neighborhood. The powerhouse team of John C. Sanders, architect Carter Skinner, interior designer Katherine Connell, and landscape architect Frank Liggett created a stunning oasis in one Raleigh's most prestigious areas. Elegance and sophistication abound as you approach the semi-circular front porch with double-door entry and elliptical transom. The inviting, light-filled foyer features herringbone floors and paneled cased openings, and is flanked by living and dining rooms with exquisite moldings and hand painted de Gournay wall panels. The family room fireplace is framed by floor-to-ceiling cabinets, diagonal coffered ceiling, and a wall of French doors overlooking a massive covered porch that is an extension of the interior. The adjoining state-of-the-art kitchen includes a lattice lined breakfast nook with two window walls, a service pantry, Tesoro Bianco marble counters with an expansive center island and professional grade Wolf and Sub Zero appliances. Tucked in front, off the dining room, is the wet bar with marble top, hammered brass sink, and glass front cabinets, accompanied by highly custom mahogany wine cellar with glass viewing door and tile floor. The side hall includes a gorgeous staircase and flows to the secluded primary retreat, complete with large bay window and spa-like bath with Asian statuary marble, double vanities, and dressing room with drawer-filled center island. Behind the kitchen, the tongue-and-groove lined back hall features porcelain tile flooring and leads to the mud room, half-bath, and laundry room with easy access to the side door and oversized, zero-entry garage. The second floor includes a generous landing with four bedrooms and three baths with beautiful tile selections and expansive walk-in closets. The spacious rec room features custom cabinets with integrated large-screen television and stairs leading down. A 5-star fitness center and golf studio with virtual golf simulator and dry bar complete this extraordinary residence!
