Now priced UNDER $450,000, this Clayton (Archers Lodge) home comes with MOTIVATED SELLERS and a $5,000 seller credit you can put toward BUYING DOWN YOUR INTEREST RATE, closing costs, or whatever suits you best. It's a rare chance to get room to breathe at a more comfortable monthly payment. The home sits well back from the road on TWO PRIVATE ACRES framed by mature trees that give the setting a calm, tucked-away feel. A natural line of trees separates it from the nearest neighbor, so you get genuine privacy without being isolated, and withNO HOA, the land is yours to enjoy the way you want. Whether that means a garden, room for the kids and pets to roam, or simply quiet evenings outdoors, there's space for all of it. Inside, 2,629 square feet offer a layout that adapts to how you live. The open kitchen and dining room flow naturally into the living area, where a stone fireplace with gas logs creates a warm gathering spot on cooler nights. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, with its own ensuite bath and a huge walk-in closet. Upstairs, a second ensuite bedroom gives guests or extended family their own comfortable space, and a third bedroom rounds out the sleeping quarters. A bonus room loft and a separate flexible living space open the door to a media room, playroom, gym, or hobby area. Off the bonus room you'll also find a walk-in attic for easy storage and a large climate-controlled office (unpermitted), perfect for working from home in peace. Luxury vinyl plank and carpet run throughout. Out back, a large deck is ready for cookouts, entertaining, or morning coffee overlooking the trees. A two-car garage, maintenance-free vinyl siding, and a new roof in 2023 mean less time on upkeep and more time enjoying the property. Close enough to everything and far enough away from it all, the home is just minutes from Highway 540, Flowers Plantation, and shopping, with an easy drive to anywhere in the Research Triangle Park area.
