This refined three-level home is the standout property in the neighborhood — the largest lot and the most private rear yard — offering scale, privacy, and finished spaces for every stage of life. Enter through a dramatic two-story foyer into a formal dining room with elegant trey ceiling and a flexible living area that’s ideal for a home office or music room. The family room centers on a gas fireplace and flows into the chef’s kitchen, which boasts custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas cooktop, a new refrigerator and an extra-long island that anchors gatherings. A bright sunroom off the kitchen provides an informal dining spot with direct views to the backyard.

Upstairs finds a generous primary suite finished as a restful retreat with two walk-in closets and a spa-like bath featuring dual vanities, soaking tub and separate shower. Four additional bedrooms include two ensuite options, plus a large flex space accessed by a secondary staircase — perfect for a playroom, media room or home gym. Thoughtful everyday conveniences like gorgeous hardwood floors and a dedicated laundry/drop zone keep family life organized.

The lower level is the show-stopper: fully renovated into a true walk-out suite with a full kitchen and granite counters, a large recreation room with a dual-sided gas fireplace, guest bedroom and full bath — plus a workshop area with built-in cabinet storage. A Murphy bed and pool table convey, making the lower level move-in ready for guests or multigenerational living.

Outdoor living is layered for entertaining and relaxation: an elevated back deck looks over an expansive yard, a second deck overlooks a hardscaped patio with built-in fire pit and hot tub, and a wooded buffer behind the property provides privacy. Fruit trees (pear, apple, peach, plum) and a blueberry bush, plus two fenced areas suitable for a chicken coop and a sunny vegetable garden, add lifestyle value and immediate curb appeal. Community amenities include a clubhouse, pool and tennis courts, with direct access to the American Tobacco Trail and quick drives to The Streets at Southpoint, UNC, Duke and RDU Airport. A rare combination of lot, layout, and condition — this home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
