Charming two-story home in sought-after Brigadoon, showcasing a classic covered front porch complete with a porch swing. Nestled among mature trees and winding streets, this well-established neighborhood offers timeless appeal, perfectly complemented by the home's traditional Colonial layout. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with a large walk-in closet and an updated en-suite bath featuring a new shower, vanity, sinks, and tile flooring. The main level offers hardwood floors in the dining room, along with an open-concept kitchen, generous eating area, and a comfortable family room anchored by a gas log fireplace. A rare and convenient feature: two powder rooms on the main level. The insulated, drywalled three-car tandem garage leads to an expansive mudroom with a large closet, laundry area, and second powder room-designed for everyday functionality. Patio doors open to a deck overlooking a lovely backyard, ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The full unfinished basement provides endless possibilities for future living space. Recent updates include a new roof (2025), driveway (2023), and furnace, A/C, and humidifier (2023), along with additional cosmetic improvements throughout. Fantastic location within walking distance to Briargate Elementary, downtown Cary's restaurants, festivals, and Metra station!
