About the property

Contemporary 5-Bed Home with Conservation Views on Cul-de-Sac

What immediately stands out at 1004 Ledgemont Ct is the private, conservation-backed backyard and the quiet cul-de-sac setting—rare in a growing Fuquay-Varina neighborhood. Built in 2016 and designed with efficiency in mind, this Energy Star 3.0–certified contemporary home offers 2,670 square feet across two bright stories. Public rooms are generous: a vaulted family room anchored by a fireplace flows toward the kitchen, while a formal dining area and a flexible office/den round out the main level.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a modern layout that supports everyday family life and entertaining. Five bedrooms and three full baths provide comfortable separation: a main-floor guest or in-law suite (or home-office option) sits apart from upstairs bedrooms, where you’ll find plenty of closet space and a primary suite sized for a true bedroom retreat. Practical systems—central AC, forced-air heating, and a shingle roof—have been maintained in good condition.

Outside, the level 0.27-acre lot opens to a scenic conservation area, creating a backyard experience that feels larger than the lot size. A two-car attached garage and a standard driveway provide parking convenience, and the cul-de-sac location minimizes pass-through traffic—ideal for children and pets. The neighborhood, Carriage Heights, blends suburban calm with quick access to town amenities.

Location is a highlight: downtown Fuquay-Varina sits about 2.5 miles away for weekly markets, restaurants, and community events; South Park and the community library are within a few miles. Wake County schools serve the area (elementary-rated higher locally), and the home’s combination of size, energy efficiency, and conservation views makes it attractive for families and buyers seeking long-term value. With local comps in the $472K–$521K range and recent steady appreciation, this contemporary five-bedroom residence represents both a livable layout and a thoughtful investment in a neighborhood that continues to appreciate.

Editorial market perspective

Fuquay-Varina’s residential market currently reads as balanced with a modest seller tilt. Inventory sits at roughly 2.5 months—below a neutral six-month threshold—so desirable single-family homes often see sustained buyer interest, yet the average days on market (about 79 days) reflects careful pricing and selective buyer activity. Median sale prices in the area have climbed approximately 25% over five years, while short-term appreciation is modest (around 5% year-over-year). For this property type—single-family, family-oriented homes in established subdivisions—demand remains steady, particularly for energy-efficient homes and those with private outdoor space.

Comparable sales immediately nearby range from $472,000 to $521,000, supporting a valuation near the midpoint. Given the constrained inventory and strong growth profile of Fuquay-Varina (notable population increase since 2015), now is an opportune time for buyers who prioritize quality-of-life features—energy savings, extra bedrooms, and conservation views—while sellers can expect reasonable interest when priced within the local comp band. Agents should highlight the Energy Star certification and the conservation lot when positioning the home to both investor and owner-occupant buyers.
