Spacious solar-powered 5-bedroom home for rent in the sought-after 5401 North community of Raleigh. This energy-efficient home offers comfort, convenience, and access to top neighborhood amenities. Inside, you'll find 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a two-car garage, providing plenty of space for families or roommates. Four of the bedrooms include custom shelving for organized storage and a polished, built-in look. The open layout and generous bedroom count make it easy to set up dedicated spaces for work, guests, or hobbies. The home is powered by solar panels, offering significant savings on electricity. With typical usage and no electric vehicle, the power bill is around $35 per month, and even with an electric car charged fully twice a month, it averages about $100. This makes the home both budget-friendly and environmentally conscious. 5401 North is a beautiful, walkable neighborhood with a clubhouse, swimming pool, gym, and on-site elementary and middle schools. With over 500 homes, it's a peaceful community ideal for evening walks and family life. Several magnet schools are also located within a few miles, providing great education options. Location is a major highlight: just about 10 miles from downtown Raleigh and very close to I-540 (Exit 18), offering quick access to RDU Airport, RTP, and major shopping areas. Everyday shopping is convenient, with Costco approximately 7.2 miles away, BJ's around 4.2 miles, Walmart about 2.9 miles, and Food Lion roughly 1.6 miles from the home.
