Raleigh Custom Homes, an award-winning luxury home builder in the Triangle, has announced the debut of "The Vanderbilt," a $9.5 million+ estate that will be the centerpiece of its entries in the 2026 Triangle Parade of Homes. The 9,630-square-foot residence, located in the prestigious North Ridge neighborhood, is set to be completed in September 2026 and will open for public tours during the three-weekend event in October.
The Vanderbilt sits on a premier lot overlooking the #1 and #17 greens of the Lakes Course, offering sweeping golf course views and a short walk to the North Ridge Country Club. The home was designed to accommodate both grand-scale entertaining and private everyday living, featuring five bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and one half bath. An elevator provides easy access across all levels, while the main living spaces are anchored by a chef's kitchen and a fully equipped scullery with a commercial-grade walk-in refrigerator, blending high-end aesthetics with serious culinary function.
For the modern buyer focused on wellness and recreation, The Vanderbilt includes a state-of-the-art exercise room, a private sauna, and a dedicated golf simulator. Outdoors, a custom-designed pool creates a resort-like oasis for gatherings and relaxation. A four-car garage completes the estate, offering ample room for automotive collections and storage.
The announcement underscores the continued demand for luxury real estate in the Triangle, a region known for its booming economy and high quality of life. The Parade of Homes, a Triangle-wide event, attracts thousands of visitors each year, and The Vanderbilt is expected to be a major draw.
Raleigh Custom Homes, known for its quality craftsmanship and innovative design, also offers comprehensive services including in-house pools, a Client Care Club, and a Luxury Lease Program. The builder has a reputation for creating exceptional residences in the Triangle's most sought-after neighborhoods.
