All photos by Abigail Jackson Photography, @abigailjacksonphoto
Absolute Stone recently completed a new home in Raleigh’s Norwood Ridge neighborhood, and it is drop-dead gorgeous. Like a castle or dreamy mansion out of a Hollywood movie, the entire property is stunning from front to back and every single nook and cranny and hidden corner in between—with almost all the rooms featuring unique stone. Seriously, just wait until you see all the photos! But before we get to those, learn a little bit more about the property…
About Norwood Ridge
Dubbed “North Raleigh’s most desirable address,” Norwood Ridge is a gated estate community spanning 38 acres and featuring 19 custom homes—with four remaining opportunities—crafted by a prestigious team of builders: Bost Custom Homes (who completed the home!), Blue Heron Signature Homes, and KJ Construction. Where luxury meets serenity, the neighborhood is set in a storybook setting complete with elevated terrain and surrounded by nature. Additionally, Norwood Ridge is within minutes of local hot spots like North Hills, Lafayette Village, Falls Lake, and more—plus great restaurants, shops, parks, and country clubs.
