This stately 2,896-square-foot Fuquay-Varina home offers three bedrooms plus a main-floor flex room with its own full bath, a generous second-floor bonus room, and an additional flex space. Together, these versatile spaces give the home the flexibility to live like a four-bedroom or more. Beautifully reimagined and nestled on a private 0.48-acre cul-de-sac lot, it pairs inviting living spaces and custom character with an impressive collection of meaningful updates. With three bedrooms upstairs, the spacious primary retreat features vaulted ceilings, an oversized walk-in closet, and a remodeled bath with a large tiled shower and freestanding soaking tub. A distinctive dual-access staircase, opening from both the foyer and family room, adds architectural interest while creating a natural flow between levels. The show-stopping kitchen is truly the heart of the home, with soaring 12-foot shiplap ceilings, an oversized quartz island, refaced cabinetry with crown molding, over- and under-cabinet lighting, subway tile, and a single-basin sink. A coordinating built-in desk beneath a large arched window provides a light-filled space for homework or household organization, with abundant drawers, cabinets, and glass-front display storage. Engineered hardwoods bring warmth to the downstairs living areas, while custom built-in bookcases and a floor-to-ceiling fireplace surround with a natural cedar mantel in the living room make the gathering spaces feel especially welcoming. Step outside to an approximately 340-square-foot covered and screened porch with composite decking, perfect for slow mornings, outdoor dinners, or evenings with friends. An adjoining grilling deck, refreshed landscaping, and a fully fenced backyard complete the private outdoor retreat. The beauty goes far beyond what you can see. Major improvements include a 2020 roof; separate upstairs and downstairs HVAC systems with Lennox PureAir, Aprilaire, and UV filtration; double-pane Champion windows; a thermal-foil-lined attic; complete PEX replumbing; a booster pump; whole-home water filtration; a rebuilt tankless water heater; and a new drain field completed in 2026. Fresh exterior paint with siding repairs, new gutters, updated porch rails, brick headwalls, and an expanded driveway add even more peace of mind. Enjoy quiet neighborhood living with convenient access to Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, Cary, Raleigh, and everything the Triangle has to offer.
