About This Home

Spacious 3 bed, 2 bath home designed for comfortable family living with flexible spaces throughout. The eat-in kitchen flows into a supersized living room with additional dining space perfect for everyday life and hosting gatherings. A main-floor bedroom currently used as an office sits next to a convenient 3⁄4 bath, ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs offers two bedrooms and a full bath. Major updates add peace of mind: triple-pane windows (2024), new siding (2023), new roof (2023), new sewer line (2024), and new decking (2022). A standout feature is the climate-controlled bonus space attached to the garage with its own entrance—ideal for a hobby area, home gym, workshop, or teen hangout. Located in Garner, a welcoming community with parks, an aquatic center, recreation facilities, and access to major area employers. A wonderful place to put down roots and call HOME.
