Welcome to your own private park in the heart of Raleigh Park. Set on over half an acre of flat, fully irrigated land, this timeless 1949 home offers an exceptional blend of space, light, and livability—inside and out. The expansive yard is the ultimate backdrop for everything from everyday play to epic entertaining.Natural light pours through the main level, where hardwood peg floors, radiant heat, and built-in speakers create warmth and ease. The vaulted great room features a gas fireplace and custom built-ins, while the remodeled kitchen impresses with a skylit granite island, Dacor range with pot filler, Liebherr fridge, Miele dishwasher, and custom cabinetry. French doors in the dining area open to the deck for seamless indoor-outdoor living.The spacious primary suite is a true retreat: fireplace, coved ceilings, private balcony, steam shower, jetted tub, towel warmers, and walk-in closet. Downstairs offers flexible bonus spaces—family room, guest suite, office nook, playroom, and second laundry—with surround sound and heated bathroom floors. Custom wood windows, updated systems, and clever built-ins throughout. Through the back gate, the possibilities open up—think extra parking, a future ADU, or space for that long-dreamed-of tennis court. Or keep it simple and enjoy Saturday soccer matches, Thanksgiving family football, and wide-open room to roam. It’s rare to find this much flat, usable space—and even rarer to make it your own. All just minutes from Nike, Intel, and top-rated schools like Jesuit, OES, and Catlin Gabel. Retreat to your own private escape!
