You've been searching for a home that gives you room to grow, space to breathe, and a neighborhood that feels like home. Tucked into friendly Ballard Woods, this one checks all the boxes—and then some. From the moment you walk in, it just feels right. The main floor unfolds with beautiful real oak floors, guiding you through a bright dining room into a big living area with soaring vaulted ceilings and extra windows that flood the space with natural light. Whether it's a quiet morning or a lively evening with friends, this room makes everyone feel at home. The kitchen is open and functional, with plenty of space to prep meals while staying connected to the action. And when the day winds down, the main floor primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with comfort, space, and privacy. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a flex room for whatever life brings your way, and a media room that's ready for movie nights or weekend marathons. The walk-up attic adds storage now—and possibilities for the future. Step outside and take in the beauty of the ,43-acre lot, where there's room to roam, play, and relax. The screened porch is your go-to spot for unwinding without the bugs, while the back patio sets the stage for grilling, gathering, or simply enjoying the gorgeous sunsets that stretch across the Carolina sky. Just 25 minutes from downtown Raleigh and 10 minutes to Fuquay-Varina, this is where peaceful living meets everyday convenience. You've been waiting for a place like this—and now it's ready to welcome you home. Up to $2,000 credit towards rate buy down or closing costs with our lender and the seller is open to a credit for carpet.
