2602 Tidwell Street

Description

Life inside Budleigh East is about refinement that feels effortless--morning walks under hundred-year-old oaks, evenings on the terrace as the city hums quietly beyond. Welcome to 2602 Tidwell Street, a move-in-ready home in The Terraces at Budleigh East, Raleigh's newest limited-edition address of only nine residences. With roughly 3,780 sq ft including 440 sq ft of outdoor living space, this Sherborn-plan townhome combines timeless craftsmanship with forward-thinking design and multigenerational living. Every bedroom is ensuite, including a main-level suite ideal for guests or home office use. The private elevator links all three levels--from the open-concept kitchen and gathering space to the third-floor retreat, where a covered balcony with wet bar sets the stage for slow mornings or lively nights. The kitchen in this specific residence has been thoughtfully elevated with Thermador appliances, including a smart WiFi-enabled induction cooktop, a custom-crafted range hood, and a striking herringbone tile backsplash. Updated designer pendant lighting and antique-finish hardware add warmth and character, blending modern performance with classic detailing. The bathrooms have been equally refined, elevated with antique brass hardware, upgraded lighting, and statement mirrors that introduce warmth and subtle sophistication. These curated details layer texture and character into each ensuite, creating spa-inspired spaces that feel both timeless and intentional. Smart sustainability is built in: WaterSense plumbing fixtures, low-flow systems, low-VOC insulation, and ICAT recessed lighting ensure quiet efficiency. A backup generator, irrigation system, and 2-car garage add rare peace of mind in luxury living. Inside, curated finishes, custom cabinetry, and wide-plank flooring echo the character of Hayes Barton's historic homes while embracing a contemporary, low-maintenance lifestyle. Here, you're minutes from Five Points, the Village District, and Downtown Raleigh, surrounded by restaurants, galleries, and parks yet buffered by the charm of an established neighborhood. Budleigh East was envisioned for those who value both heritage and progress--a place where energy efficiency meets architectural grace, and every detail serves a more intentional way of living.
