Spacious Modern 5-Bed Home with Finished Basement Retreat
This is the kind of house that lives larger than its footprint: 4,661 finished square feet spread across two stories plus a fully finished basement that functions as an independent living wing. Step downstairs to a theater-ready media room and kitchenette—perfect for weekend movie nights, guests, or multigenerational living—then return upstairs to the expansive main level where the floor plan balances daily comfort with room to entertain.
Built in 2000 and maintained with thoughtful recent investments, the home features a 2023 roof, new HVAC systems, and new water heaters—updates that add real peace of mind. The kitchen is appointed for busy households: double ovens, a custom pantry, and durable finishes that stand up to everyday use. An interior fireplace, generous primary suite, and multiple full bathrooms provide private, comfortable living spaces for family and visitors.
The property sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Austin Pond on a level 0.69-acre lot—room for play, gardening, or future exterior enhancements. Practical upgrades include an epoxy-coated garage floor and a two-car attached garage. The home’s condition is listed as excellent, reflecting care and timely mechanical upgrades that reduce near-term maintenance needs.
Location complements the layout. Downtown Clayton is roughly 2.5 miles away for evenings out, while Clayton Community Park and local health services are close by. Families will note strong nearby elementary and middle schools. With a recent December 2025 sale at $640,000 and a 2025 assessed value of $571,740, this modern five-bedroom home presents a move-in-ready option in a steady, appreciating market.
If you’re seeking flexible living space—an at-home theater, a basement kitchenette, dedicated family areas, and private bedrooms—paired with tangible system upgrades and a generous yard on a cul-de-sac, 133 S Meyers Ct is worth a tour. Vacant and ready for showings, the property gives buyers an unusual combination of scale, updated infrastructure, and a calm neighborhood setting.

133 S Meyers Ct, Clayton, NC 27520
Austin Pond is a calm, primarily residential neighborhood favored by families who prioritize yard space and proximity to Clayton’s conveniences. Streets are quiet and many homes sit on generous lots; the area offers quick access to Downtown Clayton for dining and errands, community parks for weekend recreation, and Johnston Health services. Local elementary and middle schools receive strong ratings, making the neighborhood particularly appealing to school-aged families. The overall feel is suburban and community-oriented, with steady population growth and rising property values over recent years.
Very good access to outdoor recreation with Clayton Community Park about 3 miles away, nearby neighborhood green spaces, and regional trails and bike routes a short drive from the property.
A factual market snapshot around 133 S Meyers Ct.
Johnston County and the Clayton area remain favorably tilted toward sellers: inventory sits near 2.5 months and average days on market are about 30, indicating brisk demand for single-family homes. The local median sale price sits around $350,000, while this property's recent December 2025 sale at $640,000 reflects its larger size, finished basement, and lot. One-year appreciation in the corridor is roughly 5% with five-year gains near 25%—both signals of steady, long-term upward movement rather than volatile spikes. Large single-family homes with finished basements continue to perform well here because inventory for move-in-ready, thoughtfully upgraded houses is limited. For buyers, the current environment means competition can be meaningful but buyers benefit from predictable appreciation and strong rental demand; a conservative rent estimate for a five-bedroom in this submarket is roughly $3,000/month (gross yield ~5.6%). For sellers, now remains a favorable window to capture top value; for buyers, locking in a home with recent major system upgrades (roof, HVAC, water heaters) reduces near-term capital risk and can be a smart long-term purchase in a market with low supply and steady buyer interest.
