709 E Lenoir St, Unit 100, Raleigh, NC 27601

At Loft3, smart design meets downtown energy. Unit 100 is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence occupying 1,026 square feet of carefully considered space in Raleigh’s South Central neighborhood. From the moment you step inside you notice construction that was specified for longevity — cold-formed steel framing — and premium hardware like Pella casement windows and an 8-foot sliding glass door that opens to a private balcony framing compact skyline views.

The open-plan living area centers on a modern kitchen finished with slab cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a generously sized island with an integrated trash pull-out — ideal for casual entertaining or weekday dinners. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through the main living areas while the primary suite is arranged for comfort: a walk-through closet leads to a private bath appointed with a double vanity and a custom tile shower. The second bedroom and full bath provide flexible space for guests, a home office, or a hobby room.

Loft3 is a 21-unit collection designed for downtown lifestyles. Building amenities are thoughtful and urban-focused: a rooftop terrace with gas grill, fire pit, and lounge seating overlooks the city; secure lobby, elevator, and package room simplify daily comings and goings; indoor bike storage and ButterflyMX digital access cater to active, connected residents; and off-street parking includes a one-car carport with optional EV charging. HOA dues and condo governance will apply (current fee estimate: $250/month), and buyers should review association bylaws and parking arrangements.

Positioned less than a mile from Moore Square and City Market, this unit puts dining, nightlife, cultural venues, and the Raleigh Convention Center within easy reach. The project is offered by Grayson Homes, LLC and scheduled for completion in mid-2026, presenting an opportunity to secure new construction downtown. Comparable sales in the immediate area point to a mid-market value near $445,000, supported by strong rental demand (estimated rent roughly $2,200/month) for professionals seeking walkable access to downtown employers and entertainment.

Practical details matter: the property is delivered new, heat pump HVAC provides efficient heating and cooling, and the unit’s compact footprint is optimized for urban living. With downtown growth and limited condo inventory, Loft3 Unit 100 is positioned as a modern, durable, and amenity-forward option for buyers wanting a true Raleigh city address.

South Central (East Side) is one of Raleigh’s most active downtown neighborhoods, blending vintage blocks with new residential projects and walkable streets.

Regular cultural programming at nearby plazas and seasonal events at the amphitheater create a lively calendar. With excellent transit connections and highly rated schools in the Wake County system, the area appeals to professionals, families, and investors seeking a connected downtown lifestyle.
