Life could be a dream... and at this well-loved Taft Street model in Carolina Arbors, it just might be. Tucked on a cul-de-sac, this one-level home in Durham's premier 55+ Del Webb community is thoughtfully designed for comfort and ease. The open floorplan flows into bright living and dining spaces with hardwood floors and plantation shutters in the main living areas. In the kitchen, the stainless appliances, large island, granite counters, smooth-top range, and elevated dishwasher make everyday tasks a little more pleasant. The primary suite includes a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a generous walk-in closet. The second bedroom is adjacent to a full bath with another walk-in shower. Need a third bedroom? The office could easily convert with the addition of a door. Out back, you'll find a screened porch made for dreamin' and a patio perfect for grilling or container gardening. A spacious 2-car garage covers your storage needs, whether it's bikes, golf clubs, or your growing pickleball collection. Carolina Arbors offers an exceptional lineup of amenities designed for both relaxation and recreation. Enjoy resort-style indoor and outdoor pools, a state-of-the-art fitness center, pickleball and tennis courts, community garden, walking trails, a dog park, and plenty of ways to stay active and engaged.
