...920 W Johnson Street isn't just a house, it's a home where history whispers through the walls and luxury hums in every detail. With 3,207 square feet of elegance, this 4-bedroom, 3 full bath, and 2 half bath Craftsman, built in 1928 was masterfully reborn in 2015, bringing a true mélange of old charm and bold new sophistication.

Inside, you're greeted by a grand two-story foyer, where a wrought-iron staircase twists upward like a work of art. Hardwood floors guide you deeper, where the living room, thoughtfully curated, flows seamlessly through French doors to a cozy sitting room. Sunlight pours into the dining area, offering pleasing views of lush greenery through floor-to-ceiling windows.

The kitchen is a place where savoir-faire meets culinary creativity. Custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and sleek design invite conversation, cooking, and living. Custom Kolbe sliding doors lead you to a private screened-in porch that feels like an extension of the living space, while Phantom blinds provide effortless shade when needed. Step outside, and the stone patio, with its outdoor grill station and ample seating, offers the perfect spot for entertaining or unwinding.

The first-floor primary suite feels like it's been plucked from a design magazine, natural light floods the room, highlighting its simple yet serene beauty. The en suite bath? Impressionante! Featuring Italian vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, and a walk-in shower that could easily rival a luxury spa. And let's not forget the first-floor guest suite, which offers the same calm and elegance, ensuring that family and friends feel pampered from the moment they arrive.

Upstairs, the loft and additional bedrooms offer versatile spaces that inspire everything from quiet contemplation to creative pursuits. Whether you create a cozy reading nook, a vibrant art space, or a productive home office, the possibilities are endless.
With meticulous attention to detail and modern features, this home is designed for those who appreciate both form and function.

Tucked in the coveted Forest Park neighborhood with parks dotted in every direction, minutes from Downtown Raleigh, the Village District, and local favorites, it's the best of both worlds. We invite you to a lifestyle that pulls you in, wraps you in warmth, and gives you everything you need to live your best life.
