Privacy, space and a location that keeps you close to everything: this move-in ready Highland Forest home in Fuquay-Varina backs to a wooded HOA buffer, so the quiet comes built in. The open living and dining areas flow together for easy hosting. The living room centers on a gas fireplace framed by built-in cabinetry, and custom millwork finishes the dining area. The kitchen anchors it all with a gas range, stainless appliances, a center island, a subway tile backsplash and a large walk-in pantry. A drop zone off the garage keeps the daily clutter in check. A first-floor flex room behind French doors works as a home office, playroom or lounge. Upstairs, a big loft sets up as a second living area, ready for game day. The primary suite has a tray ceiling and a spa-style bath with a walk-in shower with a built-in bench, a double vanity and a private water closet. Three more bedrooms, each with ample storage, and a dedicated upstairs laundry room complete the second floor. Out back, an expanded patio overlooks the trees, and the private, fenced, low-maintenance yard is ready for grilling, entertaining or a slow evening outside. Highland Forest adds a neighborhood dog park. Bowling Road Elementary and Fuquay-Varina Middle School are within walking distance. Downtown Fuquay-Varina is minutes away, with easy access to Raleigh, RTP and RDU. Permanent exterior holiday lighting is installed and conveys, so this home will be the one everyone in the neighborhood talks about come December.
