Tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac just minutes from vibrant downtown Apex, this inviting home combines charm, privacy, and location in one of the Triangle's most sought-after communities—without the burden of an HOA. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 1,321 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home offers a warm and flowing layout that includes a cozy living room with fireplace, a sunny breakfast nook, and a separate dining room ideal for hosting. The interior features luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout (installed in 2022), creating a seamless, modern look. Step outside to a spacious screened porch (10' x 15') and adjoining deck (8' x 16')—perfect for morning coffee or weekend entertaining. The private backyard is fully enclosed with 6-foot fencing and includes a landscaped fire pit, thriving vegetable garden, and ample room to enjoy the outdoors on the home's .21-acre lot. A 1-car garage, top-rated schools, and convenient access to shopping, dining, and entertainment round out this gem in a friendly, well-established neighborhood. Please note: the home has cats—kindly keep doors closed during showings and ensure they remain inside. The seller must have a lease back period after closing. Note, the price was recently adjusted—on purpose. After evaluating market activity over the weekend, we've strategically repositioned this home to offer exceptional value well below market comparables. It's a rare opportunity in this location.
