Property Description

Well maintained and move-in ready, this five-bedroom home is nestled on a large corner lot in popular Brightwood Trails, a welcoming community with a neighborhood pool and an easy connection to everything the Triangle has to offer. Freshly painted throughout in 2026 and thoughtfully updated inside and out, it pairs comfortable everyday living with the kind of upgrades that make daily life effortless. Rich engineered wood floors, resealed in 2026, flow across most of the main level, setting a warm and inviting tone from the moment you arrive.The main level is open, airy, and built for gracious living. A coffered-ceiling flex room welcomes guests, while the kitchen, appointed with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and soft-close cabinetry, centers on a large island with tall bar seating. It opens seamlessly to a sun-filled family room framed by a triple window. A first-floor bedroom with access to a full bath offers flexible space for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living, while zoned HVAC with smart thermostats keeps every room comfortable year-round. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite is a true retreat, crowned by a trey ceiling and paired with a large walk-in closet featuring upgraded storage. The spa-inspired bath continues the sense of sanctuary, with a walk-in shower, a freestanding soaking tub, a separate water closet, and a dual vanity. A spacious bonus room and well-proportioned secondary bedrooms complete the second floor, all finished with durable LVP flooring. The true heart of the home is its outdoor living, where a screened porch steps down to a patio and fire pit overlooking a fully fenced backyard made for gathering. Additional highlights include a Tesla electric charger, a Vivint smart home security system, added garage storage, and a refrigerator (2024) that conveys.
