Welcome to 2538 Tuffeto Trace, a stunning 6-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home located in the highly sought-after Bella Casa neighborhood—one of Apex's most desirable communities. This beautifully appointed residence combines timeless style with modern comforts, offering a spacious, flexible layout ideal for today's lifestyle.
At the heart of the home is a bright, open-concept main level, featuring a dramatic two-story foyer, rich hardwood flooring, and an abundance of natural light. The chef's kitchen is a true showstopper—boasting granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a gas cooktop, a large center island, and a walk-in pantry. Just off the kitchen, the inviting living area features a cozy stone gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and direct access to the screened-in porch, creating the perfect space for entertaining or relaxing in comfort.
The first floor is thoughtfully designed with a formal dining room accented by a coffered ceiling, a dedicated office with French doors, a stylish guest half-bath, and a practical laundry/mudroom that conveniently connects to an oversized, highly sought-after 3-car garage.
The main-level primary suite serves as a luxurious retreat, showcasing elegant tray ceilings and a spa-inspired ensuite bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, a tiled walk-in shower, and an expansive walk-in closet.
Step outside to a backyard oasis, where a custom outdoor fireplace and an elegant bluestone patio provide the perfect backdrop for year-round entertaining or peaceful evenings under the stars. Mature landscaping, and a generously sized lot with fence create a private, serene atmosphere.
Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with a versatile fifth bedroom currently used as a home theater. This flexible space can easily be transformed into a sixth bedroom, playroom, or bonus room to suit your needs. Additionally, there's an oversized bedroom that could serve as a second bonus room. Ample storage is available with both a walk-in attic and convenient pull-down attic access.
The home is equipped with a tankless water heater and a security system with sensors on the first-floor doors and windows. Community amenities include a pool and tennis court just steps from the house, along with two additional pools within the neighborhood. Ideally situated just minutes from top-rated schools, scenic parks, shopping, and the charming downtown Apex, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect blend of luxury, location, and lifestyle.
