This stunning 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath corner home in the highly sought-after Waterstone neighborhood of Cates Creek is the one you've been waiting for. From the gracious, welcoming front porch to the light-filled interiors and effortless flow, every inch of this home feels both elegant and easy to live in. Step inside and you're greeted by a sense of warmth and sophistication. To one side, a beautiful dining room with custom trim sets the stage for memorable gatherings, while a flexible front room offers endless possibilities--home office, playroom, cozy den...you decide. At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen and living area truly shine. Bathed in natural light and offering serene views of the yard and sky, this space is equal parts calming retreat and entertainer's dream. The kitchen features generous counter seating, ample workspace, and a layout that invites connection, whether you're hosting a crowd or enjoying a quiet night in. A butler's pantry and a large walk-in pantry add both charm and exceptional functionality, making everyday living (and entertaining) that much more effortless. French doors lead to a private, fully fenced backyard complete with a patio and custom raised garden beds, perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, and everything in between. It's your own little slice of outdoor bliss. Upstairs, an expansive landing leads to a truly dreamy primary suite. The bedroom is spacious and serene, while the spa-like bath features high-end finishes, a soaking tub, and room to unwind. And the closets, yes, plural, are large enough to make you do a happy dance. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and an oversized laundry room round out the second floor, making everyday living feel just a little more luxurious. A spacious garage, cheerful mudroom, abundant storage, fresh paint, and brand-new custom window treatments add to the appeal, while the vibrant Cates Creek community offers a pool, clubhouse, playgrounds, and scenic walking trails. All of this, just minutes from everything charming Hillsborough has to offer, this home truly checks every box.
