From the moment you enter, this home makes a striking impression. This luxury Brownstone--a modern interpretation of the classic residences found in Washington, DC and New York City--was built by Homes by Dickerson and is ideally situated in the highly sought-after 751 South community. It offers refined design, bespoke finishes, and sophisticated living across three expansive levels. Rich finishes, designer lighting, custom drapery, Norman shutters, custom shelving, expanded molding, and designer accent paint--along with over $50,000 in post-build upgrades--create a cohesive and elevated aesthetic throughout. A dramatic central staircase anchors the interior, architecturally reminiscent of a classic New York Brownstone, adding both elegance and visual impact as it rises through all three levels. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both gracious entertaining and effortless daily living. A formal dining room--or refined flex space--flows seamlessly into the chef's kitchen, appointed with enhanced under-cabinet lighting, upgraded tilework, and premium appliances. The kitchen opens to a light-filled family room, anchored by a brick fireplace, while French Mirage retractable screens extend the living space to an expanded brick patio with fountain--creating a private indoor-outdoor retreat rarely found in townhome living. The main-level primary suite offers both convenience and luxury, featuring French doors that open to the patio, a custom-designed walk-in closet system, and an upgraded, spa-inspired bath. The second floor offers a versatile loft along with two generously sized bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill-style bathroom, and a small library with reading nook. The third level provides exceptional flexibility, featuring a spacious bonus room, an additional bedroom, and a full bath--ideal for guests, a private office suite, or multigenerational living. Outdoor living is equally elevated, with a private fenced courtyard, curated landscaping, a stone walkway, and wired pathway lighting. The garage is enhanced with custom heavy-duty shelving, blending functionality with thoughtful design. Life at 751 South offers a true resort-style experience, including a clubhouse, pool, fitness center, playgrounds, pocket parks, sidewalks, a community garden, and vibrant year-round social events. The upcoming Phase 3 retail village will introduce a walkable grocery market, gas island, and boutique shops--further enhancing convenience and long-term value. The Brownstone HOA provides comprehensive exterior maintenance, allowing for true lock-and-leave luxury living. Ideally located near The Streets at Southpoint Mall, Duke, UNC, RTP, Jordan Lake, and RDU, this home offers exceptional access to premier dining, shopping, and the American Tobacco Trail--just minutes away.
