Original owner offering a rare opportunity to own one of the premier properties in Carolina Preserve! This home backs to the protected wooded area of Jordan Lake, ensuring exceptional privacy with no future development behind the property.
Major updates have already been completed, including a brand-new roof installed in February 2026 with transferable warranty, HVAC systems replaced in 2020 and 2024, and a water heater installed in 2020. The seller is also offering a credit for interior paint and carpet replacement, giving the new owner the opportunity to personalize the home after closing.
The thoughtfully designed main level features three bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, plus a convenient half bath for guests. A spacious laundry room with sink and counter space is also located on the main floor. The kitchen offers generous counter space, a center island, raised bar seating, and a walk-in pantry, and flows easily into the main living areas. The formal dining room comfortably seats ten and showcases tray ceilings, crown molding, and wainscoting. A private front office filled with natural light provides the perfect work-from-home space.
The living room opens through sliding glass doors to a peaceful sunroom overlooking the wooded backyard, creating a serene place to relax. Just outside, a large deck provides the ideal setting for outdoor entertaining and summer BBQs.
Downstairs, an additional 1,681 square feet of heated and cooled space offers incredible flexibility. With a separate HVAC system, this area can easily function as expanded living space or remain closed off when not in use. The lower level includes two large living/game rooms with bar and sink, a fourth bedroom and full bathroom, a flexible hobby or bonus room, and extensive storage. French doors open to a covered patio and the private backyard.
Well maintained and thoughtfully designed, this home offers space, privacy, and endless possibilities for its next owner.
