Description

Discover your own private retreat just 10 minutes from downtown Raleigh! Nestled on a beautiful wooded .92-acre lot backing to a tranquil stream, this home offers the perfect blend of modern upgrades and natural serenity. Located in a quiet neighborhood with a deeded Wake County pond, it's the ideal setting for peaceful walks or morning runs with your dog. Step inside to find a completely updated kitchen featuring new Shaker-style plywood cabinetry, soft-close drawers, granite countertops, exposed brick backsplash, under cabinet lighting, and premium stainless-steel appliances. The oak hardwood floors have been newly refinished and the entire home has been freshly painted inside and out, creating a bright, inviting atmosphere. You'll love the spacious layout. 3 bedrooms plus a bonus room/office (functionally 4BR), including a huge primary suite with fireplace, balcony, and walk-in closet organizers. The lower level offers even more flexibility with a bonus room, bedroom, full bath, and office that opens to a covered deck- Perfect for guests, a home gym, or a creative workspace. Enjoy year-round comfort with dual-zone Trane HVAC, a Grundfos constant-pressure digital well pump, water filtration system, and a new AO Smith 50-gallon water heater. The new 2023 roof features a GAF 60mil TPO membrane and Timberline Ultra HDZ shingles for top-tier durability and curb appeal. The massive multi-level wraparound deck was built for entertaining... dine outdoors under the umbrella, lounge with friends, or head down to the firepit for a cozy evening under the stars. The insulated 2-car garage features recessed lighting, belt-drive opener, and space for a workshop or gym. No city taxes, no water/sewer bills, and just minutes to Lake Wheeler, Yates Mill Pond, I-440, I-540, Crossroads shopping, and top local dining. This home delivers the peace of country living with the convenience of the city. Light, bright, and full of character. This is not your cookie-cutter home. After 25 years of love and care, the current owners are ready to pass this one-of-a-kind retreat on to its next lucky owner.
