Welcome to 1497 Orchard Villas, a meticulously maintained ranch with bonus in Apex's sought after Orchard Villas 55+ community. This home is one of the largest floor plans in the community. The main level primary suite includes a large ensuite bath with two walk-in closets and step in shower. A 2nd bedroom and office on the main level provide space for guests and dedicated work area. First floor is all hardwood flooring--cosmetic marks on the flooring have been there since 2017 and are reflected in the asking price.
