225 Elm Street
Description of 225 Elm Street, Raleigh, NC 27601
A fully restored architectural original in Historic Oakwood, where preserved heritage and curated modern living come together inside Raleigh's most storied neighborhood. Behind a classic rocking chair front porch, original hardwood floors and tall ceilings carry the home's character through every room, layered with the kind of considered updates that bring a historic property fully into the present. The light-filled family room and study is anchored by a built-in desk, bookshelves, and dual corner cabinets. The dining room flows seamlessly into the breakfast room and kitchen, with a working wood-burning fireplace on one side and a gas log fireplace on the other. The kitchen offers a custom island, two ovens, generous storage, a walk-in laundry and pantry, and a dry bar already plumbed for a sink. A signature sunroom framed by four sets of French doors connects the home to its outdoor sanctuary. Three en-suite bedrooms deliver privacy on every level. The main-floor primary suite features a walk-in closet with custom shelving, a double vanity, a walk-in shower, and a freestanding claw foot soaking tub. A second en-suite bedroom is tucked at the rear of the first floor; a third en-suite bedroom is set upstairs alongside floored attic storage. Outside, a brick terrace anchors a heated saltwater pool with waterfall wall, a freestanding brick fireplace, and built-in speakers that extend the entertaining footprint year-round. Off-street parking, a driveway, and a fenced dog area are rarities Oakwood buyers know to look for. A fully reimagined historic home, set moments from the shops, restaurants, and architectural streets that define one of Raleigh's most desired addresses.
