Back on market due to no fault of seller, feel free to ask for home inspection!! Also appraised above list price! Let's be honest...you're here for the backyard. And honestly, we don't blame you. A sparkling saltwater pool, a 7-person Bullfrog spa, and a fully fenced backyard? That's the kind of setup that turns ordinary weekends into staycations. But don't stop there, because the inside is just as impressive. With just over 3,000 square feet, 5 bedrooms (or 4 & a bonus), 3.5 bathrooms, and two primary suites (one on the main level and one upstairs), this floor plan is as functional as it is hard to find. Beautiful updated light fixtures, new carpet, spacious living areas, and room for everyone make this a home you'll never outgrow. And did we mention it's located in the Western Alamance School District? A house that's as fun outside as it is inside!
