This craftsman-style home makes a distinctive first impression: board-and-batten siding paired with stone veneer, a welcoming front porch, and a level 0.14-acre lot within Crescent Mills. Built in 2026 by Ashton Woods, 142 N Harvest Ridge Way delivers 2,563 square feet of thoughtfully arranged living space and a design that centers everyday convenience—most notably a first-floor primary suite that keeps daily routines simple and comfortable.
Step inside to an open main level anchored by a large kitchen island and quartz countertops—details specified in builder notes that buyers consistently value. An expansive living area adjoins the kitchen, creating informal gathering space for family dinners and weekend projects. Practical touches include walk-in closets, zoned heating and cooling, and a two-car attached garage with room for storage. Upstairs offers additional bedrooms and shared bath space designed for privacy and flexibility.
Outdoor living is a strong asset here. The property’s front porch sets a pleasant street presence and the Crescent Mills community places recreational amenities just steps away: clubhouse, pool with slide, pickleball courts, playgrounds, dog park, and walking trails are all within a few hundred yards. For errands and local flavor, downtown Clayton is about three miles away, and Clayton Community Park sits roughly four miles out—convenient options for weekend outings, dining, and seasonal events.
Market data supports the list price of $440,990 (about $172/sq ft). Recent, nearby new-construction sales in Crescent Mills have closed in the $430k–$450k range, underscoring demand for comparable floorplans. The property’s 2025 assessed value was $400,000 with estimated annual taxes around $4,000. For investors, rental comps suggest an estimated monthly rent near $2,200 and a gross rental yield in the neighborhood of 6%—a sign that both owner-occupants and investors are active in this pocket of the Raleigh-Cary MSA.
