Bright, Modern 4-Bed Home in 5401 North with Screened Porch
What stands out first at 4913 Enlightenment Rd is how thoughtfully the floorplan balances everyday function with entertaining polish. Built in 2022 and sited inside Raleigh’s 5401 North community, this 2,794 sq ft home opens with a practical mudroom—complete with a built-in drop zone—so coming and going stays tidy even on the busiest days. The main level also includes a true guest suite with a full bath, ideal for visiting family or multi-generational arrangements.
The public rooms feel purposeful yet relaxed. Durable LVP floors flow through the open-plan living area and into the kitchen, where a natural gas cooktop vented to the exterior, quartz countertops, custom wood-shelved pantry, and a high-end refrigerator (which conveys) make weekday meals and weekend hosting equally effortless. Ceiling fans throughout the house help maintain comfort year-round, and a tankless hot water heater adds a modern efficiency touch.
Upstairs is designed for flexibility: a generous loft awaits as a media room, homework hub, or home office, while a large laundry room with WiFi-enabled, high-capacity washer and dryer simplifies chores. The primary suite is a quiet retreat—tray ceiling, dual vanities, and an impressively large walk-in closet provide storage and comfort in equal measure.
Outside, the screened porch becomes an extra living room for late afternoons and summer dinners, overlooking a large, flat backyard enclosed by a white vinyl privacy fence—perfect for pets, play structures, or a future hardscape. Security and convenience are integrated: Ring doorbell, exterior cameras, and floodlights are already in place. The attached two-car garage and A/C round out a practical package that’s move-in ready.
Beyond the lot, 5401 North delivers a neighborhood lifestyle: resort-style amenities include a pool, fitness center, miles of trails, parks, a dog park, and nearby retail and restaurants. And for commuters, quick access to Highway 540 keeps the Triangle within easy reach. This is a newer home with contemporary systems and community offerings that appeal to families, downsizers seeking low-maintenance living, and buyers who value smart, modern finishes.

A factual market snapshot around 4913 Enlightenment Rd.
This listing’s $520,000 asking price aligns with the valuation midpoint provided ($520k) and a price-per-square-foot of roughly $186—figures that reflect a newer, amenity-rich home within the 27616 submarket. Specific MLS metrics (days on market, active inventory counts and median sale price changes for 27616) were not supplied in the dataset, so prospective buyers and investors should request current local MLS snapshots. In general, homes built within the last few years and located in communities that bundle lifestyle amenities (pool, trails, fitness center) often attract steady buyer interest because they deliver lower near-term maintenance risk and move-in readiness. For sellers, presenting clear documentation of upgrades (tankless water heater, smart security, high-end appliances) supports the price point. For buyers, getting pre-approved and preparing to act quickly are prudent strategies in areas where newer homes and turnkey properties are in demand. Engaging a local agent to pull the latest neighborhood inventory and comparable sales will provide the specific negotiating leverage needed for this market moment.
