About this home
A former Parade of Homes winner, this distinctive 5-bedroom home in The Park at West Lake combines timeless character with a wonderfully flexible floor plan. Beautiful Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors bring warmth to the main level, where you'll find a spacious primary suite, an additional guest bedroom, and an Office/Bedroom with built-ins, offering the versatility today's buyers appreciate. The inviting living room with fireplace is complemented by a formal dining room, separate breakfast room, kitchen with pantry, and convenient main-level laundry. One of the most loved spaces in the home is the light-filled, unheated sunroom, a favorite of the sellers and the perfect place for morning coffee, reading, or simply taking in the beautiful established perennial gardens that provide changing color and interest throughout the seasons. Upstairs, a 2013 dormer addition added two bedrooms and a full bath with skylights, while a spacious bonus room provides even more room to gather, work, or play. Thoughtful improvements include replacement Pella windows, an EV plug in the garage, a refrigerator approximately two years old, built-in audio system, serviced fireplace, roof inspected in 2025, and added drainage designed to carry water from the rear of the property around the sides. Even lawn care is easier here, with mowing and trimming provided for $51.85 per month, giving you more time to enjoy the gardens and community amenities. The Park at West Lake offers two pools and playgrounds, with schools within walking distance and Middle Creek Park & Recreation Center, the public library, and the coming-soon Optimist Farm Greenway nearby. Quick access to I-540 makes Cary, Apex, Raleigh, RTP, RDU, and destinations throughout the Triangle easily accessible. A home filled with character, thoughtfully cared for over the years, and designed with spaces that make everyday living feel special. This home is located in the town of Cary.
