Spacious 4BR/4BA Home with First-Floor Primary in Johnson's Landing
This is a house that rewards close attention. From the street you’ll appreciate the level 0.31-acre lot and wide driveway that leads to a two-car attached garage; step inside and the scale of the living spaces becomes immediately evident. The principal suite is thoughtfully placed on the first floor and includes a generous walk-in closet—perfect for buyers who prefer single-level living without sacrificing room count. Formal living and dining rooms flank the entry while the family room centers the plan with a fireplace that anchors everyday gatherings.
The kitchen serves the home well: durable granite surfaces and an open layout make meal prep and entertaining straightforward. A large utility room with mudroom functionality keeps the work of the household organized and out of sight. Upstairs the floorplan broadens options with extra bedrooms, a full bathroom on the upper level and a flexible bonus/exercise room—ideal as a home gym, playroom or media space.
Practical systems and construction reduce near-term maintenance concerns: central HVAC, forced-air heating with gas backup, shingle roof, and frame construction from a 2014 build. The home’s 3,211 square feet accommodate families who need dedicated spaces—home office, guest quarters, or hobby rooms—without feeling cramped.
Living in Johnson’s Landing adds lifestyle benefits: community amenities include a pool and a pond just steps from the property, and quick drives put you in downtown Angier (about 3 miles) or Fuquay-Varina (about 5 miles) for dining and errands. With an assessed value that aligns with recent neighborhood sales and a midpoint valuation near $472,700, this property represents a practical choice for buyers seeking space, functionality, and community amenities in a growing Wake County neighborhood. Taxes for the current year are $5,095; parking includes garage plus driveway capacity for four additional vehicles.

A factual market snapshot around 8621 Malahar Ln.
Johnson’s Landing sits inside a broadly balanced market. Inventory in the Angier area is about 3.5 months—near the traditional equilibrium—while homes in the local market average roughly 70 days on market. That pace reflects steady demand rather than a rapid seller frenzy, and the area has posted moderate appreciation (roughly 5% over the past year and about 25% over five years). Median sale prices across the broader market sit near $341,000, but directly comparable sales within Johnson’s Landing have traded in the $449K–$496K range this cycle, supporting a neighborhood premium for modern, well-maintained single-family homes.
Single-family product like this 2014-built residence performs well here: move-in-ready homes with first-floor primary suites and community amenities typically attract both owner-occupant families and investors seeking stable rental demand—estimated monthly rent for similar homes is about $2,574. With days on market near 70 and inventory modest, buyers have time to perform due diligence, while sellers benefit from a market that rewards accurate pricing and good presentation. Low neighborhood walkability and average middle/high school ratings are factors to weigh, but the strong elementary school and proximity to Angier and Fuquay-Varina help sustain demand.
