About This Home

As of May 2025

You can spread out and enjoy nature at this amazing home sitting on 1.62 acres of HOA free living. Its prime location provides easy access to the nearby recently finished Triangle Expressway, making commutes a breeze, while placing you just minutes from an array of parks and shopping options for leisure and convenience. The home boasts a brand-new roof and stylishly updated kitchen and bathrooms, ensuring peace of mind and move-in-ready appeal. You will love the large family room with reclaimed wood floros and upstairs large bedrooms with good closet space. A finished room over the detached garage offers versatile space—perfect for a home office, gym, or hobby room—though it lacks heating or cooling. Outside, a circular driveway leads to the detached oversized 2-car garage, providing ample storage and parking. The fenced-in yard and rear deck create an ideal setting for relaxation or entertaining, while the inviting wraparound front porch adds timeless curb appeal to this delightful retreat.
