The spacious family room is filled with natural light and opens through sliding glass doors to a large deck overlooking a private, tree-lined backyard that feels peaceful and secluded.

A 50-amp exterior outlet provides flexibility for EV charging, RV hookup, or other high-powered needs. Major improvements made by the current owner include a new front porch, new deck, new vapor barrier in crawlspace, new insulation under the home, remodeled bathrooms, new HVAC (2025), and new front rain gutters -- offering peace of mind for years to come. Perfectly positioned in a central Triangle location: * 15 minutes to Downtown Durham & Duke * 22 minutes to Downtown Chapel Hill & UNC * 13 minutes to RDU Airport * 28 minutes to Downtown Raleigh Convenient to shopping, dining, and everyday amenities, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect blend of comfort, updates, privacy, and location.
