What first captures you at 429 Mendenhall Dr is the breadth of the lot: a level, 0.61-acre parcel with roughly 100 feet of frontage and mature plantings that frame the classic brick ranch. The covered front porch invites slow afternoons and neighborly conversations; a covered back deck off the carport extends weekend grilling and gatherings into the private, fenced yard. This property delivers rare outdoor space within the Whispering Trails neighborhood.
Inside, the home’s scale reads larger than many single-level plans. The main floor showcases fresh paint and new flooring across much of the primary living area, complementing the solid wood kitchen cabinets and an eat-in kitchen that anchors daily life. A formal living room and a cozy den with a brick fireplace give multiple gathering spots for family and entertaining. Bathrooms show distinctive tile and a unique vanity — small designer touches that reinforce the home’s well-cared-for character.
The partially finished basement expands usable square footage and versatility: a finished rec room with a second fireplace provides a comfortable media or play area, while a large unfinished section with a roll-up garage door creates exceptional storage or hobby/workshop options. Central AC, forced-air electric heat, and an asphalt shingle roof round out practical systems; the property is served by public water and a private septic system, and parking is handled by a two-car attached carport plus driveway spaces.
Thoughtful updates—new main-level flooring and a fresh coat of paint—reduce near-term maintenance needs and make the home move-in ready for many buyers. The oversized lot is an uncommon asset here, offering room for play, gardening, or future expansion subject to zoning. Located just 1.5 miles from Midway Town Center and about 13 miles from downtown Winston-Salem, the house balances suburban calm with quick access to shopping, schools, and commuter routes.
