Home Details
Timeless Charm Meets Endless Potential in this Multi-Generational Home. Nestled in the heart of Cary, this cherished 1962-built home has been passed down for generations, offering a unique blend of character and opportunity. With custom-milled hardwood flooring crafted by the original family, every step in this house tells a story of craftsmanship and care. Main level, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, one full bath, a cozy living room, dining area, and a functional kitchen, all complemented by a charming bump-out bay window. Step outside to enjoy front and side porches, a generous rear deck overlooking open space, and a large backyard with an original Maple tree, plus well-maintained gardens and perennial plants lining the driveway. The oversized detached two-car garage offers ample storage, while the attic-equipped with drop-down steps and plywood flooring, provides additional usable space. The full bathroom maintains its original steel bathtub with porcelain overlay, along with a skylight and a classic wall-mounted toilet, recently updated within the last five years. The lower level offers two more bedrooms, a sizable living area, a half bath, and a second kitchen, making it perfect for multi-generational living or rental potential. A laundry room is equipped with plumbing for an additional bath, ready for further customization. A separate entrance off the side enhances accessibility. Despite needing some updating, this home retains its original wood kitchen cabinets, a built-in electric stove, and an apartment-sized dishwasher. Downstairs, the built-in closets and cabinets add to the practicality of the space. With central heating and air conditioning recently serviced, a newer furnace, and a home warranty included, this property stands ready for its next chapter. A home with history, charm, and versatility, this is the perfect opportunity to create a space that reflects your vision while honoring its legacy.
