Award-winning modernist residence designed by Vernacular Studio architects Brett Hautop and Chad Parker, and featured by NCModernist, this architect-designed downtown Raleigh home was created around light, volume, and seamless indoor/outdoor living. Dramatic ceilings, expansive windows, and open living spaces connect naturally to a private courtyard through a NanaWall system, creating a rare sense of privacy and calm in a walkable urban setting. The layout is both functional and flexible, with a second-floor sun porch off the owner's suite and a third-floor bonus space ideal for guests, office use, or recreation. Hardwood floors, quality finishes, a sealed crawl space from the original build, and a top-of-the-line high-efficiency Trane HVAC system add lasting substance beyond the design itself. Additional features include a stone privacy wall and fenced yard, two-car garage, Level 2 EV charger, extra attic storage, landscape lighting, wired networking, chef-quality gas stove, Sub-Zero glass-front refrigerator, and built-in patio speakers. Located in downtown Raleigh near parks, museums, restaurants, and everyday conveniences.
