Single-level living with your own private entrance, attached 2-car garage, and none of the exterior upkeep. Tucked at the back of gated Brookstone Cottages at Rae's Creek, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home lives like a patio home. Each of the four residences in the building has its own entry on a separate side. The exterior was freshly painted this fall, the roof is about two years old, and the owners have kept the interior in excellent condition. Inside are hardwood floors, a vaulted great room with fireplace and built-ins, a separate dining room, and a heated sunroom. The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a breakfast area. The split-bedroom plan gives the primary suite its own side, with dual vanities, a garden tub, a separate shower, and a walk-in closet. Plantation blinds and a landscaped yard with sprinklers complete the picture. The HOA handles exterior and roof maintenance, lawn care, landscaping, trash, and pest control. The pool, clubhouse, and fitness center are just half a block away, with community events going on year-round. Lock the door and travel, or stay home and enjoy it.
