Raleigh Custom Homes has announced the debut of "The Vanderbilt," a $9.5 million estate that will headline the 2026 Triangle Parade of Homes. The 9,630-square-foot residence, located in the exclusive North Ridge community, is scheduled for completion in September 2026 and will be open for tours during the three-weekend event in October.
The property sits on a premier lot overlooking the #1 and #17 greens of the Lakes Course, offering sweeping views of the golf course and a short walk to the North Ridge Country Club. Designed by the premier luxury home builder in Raleigh, the home is crafted to accommodate both grand-scale entertaining and private everyday living.
The Vanderbilt features five bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, and one half-bath, with an elevator providing access to all levels. The main living spaces include a chef's kitchen and a fully equipped scullery with a commercial-grade walk-in refrigerator, blending high-end aesthetics with culinary functionality.
For wellness and recreation, the home 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 relaxation and gatherings. A four-car garage provides ample space for vehicles and storage.
"We are thrilled to present The Vanderbilt as our crown jewel for the Parade of Homes," said a representative from Raleigh Custom Homes. "This estate represents the pinnacle of luxury living in the Triangle, with every detail thoughtfully designed to offer an unparalleled lifestyle."
