There's a lot to love about this 3 bedroom, 2 bath Cary townhome, starting with a floor plan that gives you some great options. The main floor has LVP flooring and includes a large bedroom with a walk-in closet, perfect for anyone who wants a bedroom on the first floor. The kitchen has granite countertops, a tile backsplash and a large, deep sink. Out back, the recently refreshed deck overlooks a wooded area and is a great place to sit outside and enjoy your private oasis. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is surprisingly large and has two closets. The full bath is shared with the second upstairs bedroom, and the landing has enough extra space for a desk or small work area. The unfinished walkout basement is another big plus. There's tons of room for storage, a workout area, bikes, a workshop or whatever else you need the extra space for. Or, if you need more living space in the future, there's potential to finish it. The location is one of the best things about this home! The Black Creek Greenway is steps away, and the recently widened and repaved trails connect to North Cary Park, Lake Crabtree and Umstead State Park. You can walk, run or bike for miles right from the neighborhood. At the same time, you're close to RDU, major highways, shopping and restaurants, so getting just about anywhere is easy. The community also has a pool and tennis courts, and the home comes with two reserved parking spaces right out front. Between the wooded setting, the extra storage and the convenience of this Cary location, this one has a lot going for it.
