If you've been craving space, privacy, and a slower pace — without giving up convenience — this is the one. Tucked on a beautifully landscaped 1-acre lot inside town limits (yet peacefully removed from the bustle of downtown), this impeccably maintained 2019 home offers the perfect balance of refined comfort and everyday livability. Step inside to engineered hardwood flooring that flows seamlessly through the open main living areas, anchored by a warm gas fireplace surrounded by floor to ceiling built-ins and designed for effortless connection between the kitchen, living room, and outdoor spaces. The kitchen is both functional and inviting with granite countertops, a large island, generous pantry, and a newer dishwasher — ideal for weeknight dinners or hosting friends. From here, the home opens to a spacious screened porch and oversized patio, creating a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle. There's ample room for dining or gathering space, all overlooking a flat, usable backyard framed by a tree line and neighboring horse farm — where you may occasionally catch a peaceful glimpse of horses beyond your yard. The first-floor primary suite is privately tucked at the rear of the home, offering a quiet retreat complete with an oversized tile walk-in shower, dual sinks, and dual walk-in closets. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms with large closets and a spacious bonus room (ideal for media room, office, or potential 5th bedroom) provide flexible living options for growing families or work-from-home needs. A main-floor laundry room, mudroom, and half bath add daily convenience. Enjoy a 2-car garage plus an extra parking pad, city water with septic, and a reasonably priced HOA — all just minutes from grocery stores, dining, Raleigh access, and the newly announced Target. This is elevated suburban living with the space today's buyers are searching for.
