Rarely do privacy, acreage, and convenience come together like this. Set on 3.28 private acres just outside Cary town limits, this updated mid-century-modern-inspired ranch offers true one-level living, a saltwater pool, a four-car garage, and exceptional flexibility; all with no HOA and county taxes only. Freshly painted and move-in ready, this home features vaulted ceilings with bamboo flooring and expansive windows throughout. The spacious kitchen offers a large main island with a second island that provides seating and divides the family room space in this open concept. Premium appliances and built- in Kenmore Elite separate refrigerator and freezer provide all that a chef would need. Three bedrooms, consistent with the septic permit, include an elegant primary suite, complemented by a dedicated office and two additional bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite bathroom. The flex room could serve as an additional room for guests, or an additional home office or study if needed. The primary suite features dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, a substantial custom closet with custom built-in organizational shelving, and a renovated bath with heated tile floors, a soaking tub, and an oversized walk-in shower. The family room with stone fireplace opens to a screened porch and expansive deck overlooking the saltwater pool. There's a separate fenced area that is perfect for pets, while the wooded acreage behind the home provides room for gardening, recreation, and added privacy. A finished outbuilding offers possibilities for a workshop or creative retreat. The four-car garage includes two EV charging outlets plus a finished, conditioned room ideal for a gym, studio, or home business. Thirty-two solar panels, private well with whole-house filtration, and new gutters further enhance the home's efficiency and ease of ownership. All this, approximately five minutes from Prestonwood Country Club, less than 10 minutes from downtown Apex, less than 15 minutes from downtown Cary, and less than 20 minutes from RDU. Currently assigned to Davis Drive Elementary, Davis Drive Middle, and Green Hope High. Private without being remote, this is an increasingly rare opportunity for acreage, one-level living, and remarkable convenience on Cary's doorstep.
