This truly one-of-a-kind historic modern condo stands apart as a rare find in Raleigh! Beautifully reimagined by renowned architect Charles Fulbright Holden. Blending 1890s charm with sophisticated modern design, it features exposed original wood ceiling beams, hardwood floors throughout, and a custom modern entry door unique to this unit. The open living area is anchored by soaring 18-foot ceilings, a dramatic wall of windows overlooking the future Smoky Hollow Park, and architect-designed built-in bookshelves. The kitchen is a stunning blend of old and new, incorporating the historic 1890s freight elevator with exposed brick and archways, high-end appliances, a dedicated filtered water tap, and LED-lit shelving controllable by smartphone. The bedroom includes custom closet systems, modern carpeting, and elegant transom window, while the spa-inspired bathroom offers a luxurious walk-in shower, heated towel warmers, and premium European fixtures-all seamlessly integrated with Apple Home automation. The unit is equipped with a brand-new HVAC system, a tankless water heater, and comprehensive smart home features for lighting and climate control. A dedicated laundry area includes custom built-in storage. With low COA fees (covering water and garbage), 80% owner occupancy, and a vibrant community featuring an active book club, this building offers both lifestyle and value. Residents enjoy amenities such as a large fenced dog park, two outdoor grilling areas, deeded covered parking, and secure storage. The location is walkable to Seaboard Station, Oakwood, Smoky Hollow, and Glenwood South, placing dining, shopping, and entertainment just steps away. Eligible for historic tax credits covering up to 50% of property taxes, this condo is ideal as a sophisticated primary residence or a high-potential rental property.
