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.
