New construction with acreage, guest suite, and spa-inspired primary bath
Sales comparison approach using recent listings and sales in the area. Adjusted for new construction premium and lot size.
The first thing you notice at 6482 Madelyn (Lot 5) is the scale — a cleared, private 2.26-acre parcel inside River Landing that feels more like small-homestead living than a typical subdivision lot. Set back from Madelyn Drive, this newly constructed two-story home delivers 2,497 square feet of modern layouts and traditional details: vinyl siding with a clean profile, a welcoming covered entry, and mature-sized yard space that opens possibilities for gardens, a workshop, or outdoor entertaining.
Inside, the main level centers on a roomy open plan and a formal dining room highlighted by coffered ceilings — a deliberate touch that elevates everyday dinners and holiday gatherings. The living room is generous and includes a fireplace anchor for relaxed evenings. The kitchen provides expansive counter space and practical flow to the dining and living areas. A flexible first-floor guest suite with its own private bath offers real multi-generational living potential or can serve as a home office or in-law space.
Upstairs, the primary suite is thoughtfully appointed with tray ceilings and a spa-inspired ensuite: dual vanities, a garden tub and separate shower create a calm retreat. Three additional bedrooms share a well-placed hall bath, and the centrally located upstairs laundry keeps daily chores compact. Practical systems include a heat pump for heating and central air for cooling; utilities are public water with a septic tank for sewage. A two-car attached garage and cleared lot complete the package.
This home is vacant and ready for its first owner, listed at $405,999 (about $163 per square foot). It sits within Cumberland County and the Cape Fear High School attendance area, with District No. 7 Elementary roughly 3.9 miles away and middle/high schools within a short drive. With its combination of acreage, five bedrooms, and modern finishes, this property is an attractive option for buyers seeking space and contemporary convenience just outside Fayetteville.
Please verify lot boundaries, septic details, and certificate of occupancy with the listing agent prior to contract. Lauren Furr of Coldwell Banker Advantage - Fayetteville is the listing agent for inquiries and tours.
6482 Madelyn (lot 5) Dr, Wade, NC 28395
River Landing offers a semi-rural feel with larger lots and a quieter pace while remaining within commutable distance of Fayetteville. Residents commonly choose the area for acreage, privacy, and straightforward access to the I-295 outer loop. Schools in the Cumberland County system are nearby, and local life centers on family-friendly outdoor activities, home gardens, and weekend drives to Fayetteville for dining, shopping, and services. The community appeals to buyers seeking room to spread out without sacrificing access to regional amenities.
Moderate access to outdoor recreation: generous private yard space and neighborhood green areas, with regional parks, golf courses, and Fayetteville-area trails reachable by a short drive.
Recent comparable sales in the immediate area show active demand for new and recent construction: three nearby sales within the last two months closed between $390,000 and $404,000, with price-per-square-foot results ranging roughly $151–$181. This listing at $405,999 (~$163/sqft) sits close to the upper end of local comps, reflecting both its larger 2.26-acre lot and new-construction condition. Local market notes indicate new homes in Wade and River Landing are attracting buyers who want modern systems and larger lots while remaining accessible to Fayetteville via the I-295 corridor. Inventory specific to new construction is limited, and buyer interest for turnkey, larger-lot homes has kept competition firm—so for comparable product, expect a balanced-to-slight seller’s market, particularly for move-in-ready homes. Buyers should leverage recent comps and consult inspectors on septic and CO status; sellers can point to the lot size and turnkey amenities as primary value drivers.
