Ideally situated at the edge of historic Hayes Barton, The Wade offers a rare combination of timeless elegance, privacy, security, and effortless access to all that Raleigh has to offer. With just 29 residences, this distinctive boutique condominium community provides an intimate residential experience in one of the city's most desirable settings. Perched atop the west side of the building, this exceptional penthouse residence enjoys beautiful wooded views, abundant natural light, and a sense of privacy that is uncommon in an urban setting. The thoughtfully designed open floor plan features high ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, refined finishes, custom millwork, and graciously proportioned spaces that transition effortlessly from relaxed daily living to sophisticated entertaining. The elegant living room, anchored by a gas-log fireplace and custom built-ins, flows naturally to the dining room and balcony, while the well-appointed kitchen features quartz countertops, an island, and premium appliances. Two bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a private office complete the one-level residence. The amenities of The Wade extend well beyond the residence, with two dedicated gated parking spaces, a large private storage unit on the fifth floor, fitness center, and convenient access to the spectacular rooftop retreat. Just off the gracious lobby, the inviting Owners' Retreat provides an additional living and gathering space for residents. Beautifully maintained grounds include a fenced pocket park, dog-washing station, and rose garden. Elegant without pretense, private yet remarkably convenient, this is a sophisticated urban residence in one of Raleigh's most established and coveted neighborhoods.
