Cary, NC 27513. Five bedrooms, a fenced quarter acre, and top-rated schools down the street.

See the schoolsHardwoods through the main level, a big cherry kitchen with granite, an island and gas range, a living room with a gas fireplace, and French doors out to the deck. There's a dedicated office downstairs, plus formal dining for the holidays you'll inevitably end up hosting.
Upstairs, all five bedrooms live on one floor, including a primary suite with a frameless glass tiled shower and a soaking tub. Out back, a fenced yard with garden beds and room to actually throw a ball. Fresh paint, a 2022 roof, and you can walk to the elementary and middle school. I'd move fast on this one.
