Updated 4-Bed Transitional Home in Willowmere with New Roof
This transitional two-story in Willowmere announces itself with a new architectural shingle roof completed in 2025 and a tidy, level 0.2-acre lot that families appreciate. Inside, the home’s open public rooms are sized for everyday life—a living room with a fireplace anchors the layout, and a central kitchen offers granite countertops and stainless steel appliances that keep the space practical and welcoming. The main level’s sightlines make supervising children or entertaining guests easy without sacrificing defined spaces.
Upstairs, four bedrooms and a shared primary suite arrangement provide comfortable private quarters for a growing family. The floorplan totals approximately 2,047 square feet and includes two full baths plus a well-placed half bath for guests. Vinyl siding and thoughtful upkeep show a property maintained with care; the recent roof replacement is a standout improvement that reduces near-term maintenance concerns.
Willowmere’s community amenities are a short stroll away: neighborhood pool, tennis courts, playground and clubhouse create a built-in social calendar for kids and adults alike. Location-wise, the home balances quiet residential streets with convenient access to I-485 (about 1 mile), Arboretum shopping (approximately 4 miles), Downtown Matthews (roughly 3 miles), and green space like Colonel Francis Beatty Park (about 2.5 miles). Proven schools—McKee Road Elementary, Jay M. Robinson Middle, and Providence High—add to the neighborhood’s family appeal.
Practical details: a front-facing 2-car attached garage, central HVAC and forced-air gas heat, municipal water and sewer, and an assessed value below current neighborhood comps give this listing a practical investment case. Buyers should confirm HVAC age and review HOA details as part of standard due diligence. With limited inventory in Willowmere and steady demand from school-focused families, this home presents an attractive blend of recent updates, everyday functionality, and access to long-standing community amenities.

A factual market snapshot around 3536 Arborhill Rd.
Willowmere is presently functioning as a seller’s market: low inventory (approximately 2.5 months supply) and average days on market near 30 indicate homes are moving quickly and often drawing competitive offers. Recent area metrics show a one-year appreciation of about 5% and a five-year gain near 25%; the median sale price for the immediate area sits around $525,000.

Single-family homes in this neighborhood attract strong family demand driven by top-rated middle and high schools, community amenities, and highway access. Turnover is modest, so buyers should be prepared to act decisively when well-priced homes appear. For sellers, the current environment supports competitive pricing and likely multiple-offer scenarios; for buyers, leveraging a clean offer with inspected contingencies and flexible timing can improve competitiveness. Investors will note steady rental demand—estimated rents for comparable 4BR homes suggest solid yields—however, owner-occupant purchasers benefit most from the school and amenity-driven premiums in Willowmere.
