6320 Kanawa Lane
Raleigh, NC 27614Nestled on over 3.5 wooded acres in North Raleigh, this one-of-a-kind custom-built Modern Craftsman offers a rare blend of privacy, architectural integrity, and refined luxury. Designed by renowned architect Donald Gardner and meticulously maintained by its original owner, the home backs to protected Army Corps land, providing breathtaking sunset views and unmatched seclusion. Thoughtfully constructed with cedar and real Douglas fir accents, and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Interior highlights include oak hardwood floors, extensive custom millwork, handcrafted doors, custom mirrors, transom windows, and cherry built-ins. The chef's kitchen features soapstone countertops and flows seamlessly into the main living areas, including a sunroom with gas fireplace and access to a back deck. A breezeway connects the kitchen to a detached three-car garage with solid wood doors, with a finished room and half bath above. Main-level primary suite offers dual custom closets and a spa-like bath, while the walk-out lower level includes additional living space, three bedrooms, storage, and access to a covered lower courtyard. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a saltwater in-ground pool (new liner 2025), wood-burning fire pit, partially fenced yard with deer fencing, and professionally designed landscaping featuring over two dozen mature plantings, bluestone hardscaping, curated paths, and extensive drainage systems. Additional features include always on demand hot water at every faucet and shower head, Control4 home automation with whole-house audio, generator, whole-house dehumidification, UV water filtration, and HVAC UV light sanitization. Ideally located less than a mile to Blue Jay Point and under 1.5 miles to Falls Lake boat ramp. First time on the market--an exceptional opportunity to own a truly distinctive property in North Raleigh.
