Updated 4-Bedroom Home in Alston Ridge with Community Pool
What first catches your eye is the location: 2678 Averon Drive sits a short, walkable block from Alston Ridge Park and the neighborhood greenway, giving the feel of a planned community without sacrificing privacy. Built in 2016 and well maintained by long-term owners, this 2,280-square-foot, two-story home places four bedrooms and 2.5 baths around an open, modern living plan that suits both everyday family life and weekend entertaining.
Enter through a welcoming foyer into an open main level where the family room centers on a gas fireplace — a natural gathering spot in cooler months. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar that faces the dining area; sightlines are purposeful so conversation continues whether you’re prepping dinner or checking homework. Wood-look flooring runs through much of the main level and adds warmth to the contemporary finishes.
Upstairs are four comfortably sized bedrooms and a primary suite with room for a sitting area and a private bath. Practical systems include central AC and forced-air gas heating; the asphalt shingle roof and overall condition were assessed as good. A two-car attached garage plus driveway parking answer the needs of guests and daily commuters.
Beyond the yard, the Alston Ridge community delivers real lifestyle value: community pool access, walking trails, and quick routes to shopping and schools. Herbert Akins Elementary, Holly Ridge Middle (9/10), and Fuquay-Varina High are all nearby, making this a convenient choice for families. Comps across Averon Drive show recent sales in the low-to-mid $400Ks, and the property’s assessed value of $416,881 aligns with neighborhood trends — strong evidence of sustained demand in this part of Fuquay-Varina.
For buyers seeking a move-in-ready home with contemporary finishes, efficient systems, and immediate access to community amenities, 2678 Averon Drive is a compelling option. Recommended next steps include a professional inspection and review of HOA guidelines, and we’re happy to coordinate showings or provide rental-income analyses for investors exploring the strong local rental market.
