The spacious floorplan offers comfortable living areas and thoughtful design modifications that maximize functionality. The primary suite was expanded to include an additional hallway and hall closet area, creating enhanced separation and storage. Plush Stainmaster carpeting with upgraded premium padding adds comfort in designated spaces, while the home's overall design reflects attention to detail and pride of ownership throughout. One of the standout features of the home is the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. A disappearing in-wall sliding glass door opens directly to the screened porch and covered rear deck, creating an ideal setup for entertaining or relaxing while overlooking the expansive property. The screened porch provides a comfortable retreat for enjoying North Carolina evenings, while the large covered deck offers additional space for gatherings, grilling, or outdoor dining. The exterior amenities continue to impress. The property includes an above-ground pool.

The rear watershed area is noted by the seller as suitable for outdoor recreational activities including deer, turkey, and duck hunting. Wide open spaces combined with wooded surroundings create an ideal setting for those seeking room to spread out while still maintaining access to nearby shopping, dining, and commuter routes.
