401 Shinleaf Pond Trail, Raleigh, NC 27614

Set on a 1.41-acre cul-de-sac homesite with room for a future pool, this home makes a grand entrance through double front doors into a soaring two-story foyer framed by a dramatic dual staircase. Off the entry, a private office behind double doors offers a quiet place to work. The formal dining room, served by its own butler's pantry, is made for unforgettable dinner parties. Pass beneath the showpiece staircase into the two-story great room, anchored by a sleek linear fireplace. Stacking sliders open the casual dining area to a large outdoor living deck with its own fireplace, so you can entertain indoors and out in any season. The huge kitchen has a massive walk-in pantry with room for everything. A true main-level multigenerational suite, with its own bedroom, full bath and separate sitting room, is a thoughtful way to bring family close while giving everyone room to feel at home. Upstairs, an overlook views the foyer and great room below. Double doors open to a large primary suite with a separate sitting room. The primary bath has dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub and a huge walk-in shower, and the massive walk-in closet connects to extra unfinished storage. Three more bedrooms each have a private ensuite bath and a walk-in closet. The partially finished basement adds a rec room, a sixth bedroom, a full bath, plenty of walk-in storage and its own outside entrance. A three-car garage completes this home. Construction is underway on this Design Ready Home, and for a limited time you can make it your own by choosing select finishes.
