About This Home

Some homes are convenient. This one is showing off. Need to catch a flight? RDU is minutes away. Need to get to RTP? Easy. Need to hit Umstead for a hike because you've decided this is the week you're becoming an outdoorsy person? Also easy. Need tacos, Target, coffee, groceries, and a last-minute birthday gift? Somehow all of that is nearby too. Located in Arlington Heights, this 3-story corner-unit townhome puts you in one of Raleigh's most ridiculously convenient locations while also being the kind of home people stop scrolling for. The first thing you'll notice is the space. With 2,212 square feet spread across three levels, everyone gets room to spread out without accidentally becoming part of each other's daily business. The main living level is where this home really starts showing off, featuring wide-plank luxury flooring, a stunning oversized quartz island, white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, designer lighting, built-in shelving, a custom shiplap fireplace, and an open layout that somehow feels both spacious and cozy at the same time. The kitchen deserves its own fan club. Whether you're meal prepping, hosting friends, ordering takeout and pretending you cooked, or standing around the island discussing where everyone wants to eat while nobody can make a decision, this space was built for it. Need fresh air? Step outside onto the covered balcony, perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, people watching, or quietly avoiding responsibilities for twenty minutes. The first floor offers a private flex space and full bathroom that works beautifully for guests, roommates, multi-generational living, a home office, or anyone who appreciates a little extra privacy. Upstairs you'll find additional bedrooms, beautifully finished bathrooms, and a laundry room complete with washer and dryer already included because life is hard enough. The attached two-car garage includes EV charging capability and plenty of room for vehicles, bikes, holiday decorations, Costco purchases, and the Amazon packages you swore you weren't ordering anymore. And let's talk about what may be the biggest flex of all. You can be hiking at Umstead, boarding a flight at RDU, grabbing dinner in Brier Creek, heading into RTP, or making a Target run in less time than it takes some people to leave their neighborhood. That's not convenience. That's a cheat code. The property is currently occupied, so please do not disturb the residents. Well-qualified roommates are welcome. Showings are available by appointment only. Come see why this corner-unit beauty may ruin every other townhome for you.
