This charming home offers timeless character with thoughtful updates throughout. The main level features beautiful hardwood floors, 9-foot ceilings, and classic arched doorways that enhance the home's warm, classic feel. The outstanding custom-remodeled eat-in kitchen showcases upscale self-closing cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher (2025), along with updated plumbing and lighting fixtures. Much of the electrical has been updated, including the main panel. Enjoy relaxing on the huge full front porch or the screened-in back sun porch overlooking the massive and peaceful backyard. Many newer Pella and Andersen windows bring in abundant natural light. The full basement offers exterior access, English windows, 9-foot ceilings, two root/wine/fruit cellars, and exceptional storage potential. Additional major updates include a new roof and gutters (2025), new furnace and central AC (2017), newer Speed Queen washer (2026), and a fireplace insert in the living room (2023). The detached 2-car brick garage is a standout feature, complete with its own basement and a Blaze King wood stove (2021), offering year-round versatility. Would make a great gym, she-shed/man-cave, or gardening headquarters! The property is enhanced by five mature sweet cherry trees (Stella, Bing, and Royal Ann varieties) and a Fuji apple tree, adding both beauty and charm to the outdoor space. With 2,068 square feet per assessor, this home offers an incredible combination of space, character, updates, and location. Much of the home has already been restored, while still leaving room for your personal touches. Highly sought upon Cary-Grove High School too! Let's make this in-town gem with a huge yard yours!
