Come and see this lovely 3-bedroom 2.5 bath, well maintained home, nestled in the sweet, gated community of Fairfield Harbour. With a nicely landscaped front garden, enter this home by passing the stone front two car garage, via the covered front porch with columns. Come right into the warm living room with recessed lighting, gas fireplace with fluted molding/mantle, ceiling fan and crown molding. Continue into the dining area (that may be used formally) into the open kitchen that features granite countertops and nook for bar stools. Stainless appliances, four-by-four tile backsplash with light wood cabinets and brushed nickel hardware to finish. Down the hall from the kitchen is your laundry room with an entry to the garage. In this split bedroom floor plan the main bedroom off the hall is spacious, and leads to the en suite bath that boasts beautifully finished white dual vanity sinks with descending crown edge, a jetted tub, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet. Head the other way up the stairs into the carpeted FROG that has its own climate controls, with one-half bath. Fourth bedroom perhaps? Back down the hall on the first floor you will find two adequately sized light, airy bedrooms, and a full bathroom. From the living room, through the sunroom/dining room, take a step out into your 16'x16' screened in porch, with a view of the private backyard that backs up to a NC State owned forest. Conveyed with the home is a 2-year-old 10'x10' shed freshly painted last summer. Built in 2006, many upgrades have been completed and the house has been well maintained. A new whole house water filter/softener was installed in 2013, a GE hybrid heat pump and a new water heater was installed in 2014, and gutter guards in 2022. Do not miss out on this gem in Fairfield Harbour. Walking trails, golf course, marina and recreation center all nearby! Bring all Offers to a motivated Seller! Let's get the deal done! Thank you!
