About the property

Updated 5-Bed Home with Private Yard and Community Pool

What stands out first at 1139 Grogans Mill Drive is scale and proportion: a dramatic two-story foyer opens to an airy, open-to-below family room where a fireplace anchors large gatherings and the first-floor sightlines emphasize the home's 3,361 square feet. Hardwood floors on the main level lead you through formal and casual living spaces, and a main-level guest bedroom with a full bath offers practical flexibility for guests or multi-generational living.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated — quartz countertops, a new cooktop and newer appliances combine with generous counter space and an easy connection to the family room, making weekday meals and weekend entertaining equally effortless. Recent improvements include new carpeting throughout the upstairs and a roof replacement completed in 2022, minimizing near-term maintenance concerns so you can focus on the lifestyle this home affords.

Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private sitting area for work or quiet reading, plus abundant closet space. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath round out the second floor, giving family members or guests room to spread out. Practical systems include central AC, forced air heat, and a two-car attached garage plus driveway parking for additional vehicles.

Outside, the 0.21-acre lot is level and low-maintenance, with a private backyard for play, pets, and weekend barbecues. Living in Weldon Ridge brings built-in recreation: the community pool, playground, volleyball court and walking trails are moments away, and larger greenways like the American Tobacco Trail sit within easy reach. For families, this property is served by top-rated schools (Mills Park Elementary and Middle, Green Level High), and major employment hubs like Research Triangle Park are roughly five miles away, putting commutes and shopping within convenient reach.

This home has been well cared-for and presents as a move-in-ready option for buyers seeking space, strong community amenities, and highly rated schools. With a list price aligned to local comparables and recent updates that reduce immediate capital needs, 1139 Grogans Mill offers both practical comfort and everyday convenience in one of Cary’s most popular neighborhoods.

Editorial market perspective

The local Cary market remains tilted in sellers’ favor but offers nuanced opportunities. Wake County metrics show inventory near 2.5 months—below a balanced market—while the area average days on market is roughly 48 days and 1-year appreciation sits at about 5%. Median sale price for the surrounding market is near $635,000, with single-family homes in Weldon Ridge trading at a higher premium due to school quality and neighborhood amenities.

Comparable sales and the county assessment place 1139 Grogans Mill in a value band roughly $780,000–$820,000, and the current list price of $809,990 aligns with that midpoint. Single-family homes of this size and configuration typically maintain strong demand here, especially where top-rated schools and community facilities are present. That said, this specific listing has lingered on market since November 2025—an indicator buyers can use to negotiate on terms or timing. For sellers, low inventory and steady appreciation support pricing discipline; for buyers, the combination of limited supply and occasional extended listings creates room for strategic offers. Verify days-on-market and recent local sales when placing or evaluating offers.
