501 Chandler Grant, Cary NC, My New Favorite Highcroft Listing.

Ok this one has been on the market a while but with some serious cost cuttings this home now stands up and screams "buy me"!

This of course is not my listing, I do not list or sell homes, I am just study markets and give really good information to those that want it. If you want to know who does a great job email me and I will point you in the right direction for what you need.

Back to the listing... Lets start with what we like about the home and then get to what makes it a perfect buy for the right shopper.

First the home has over 3100 square feet (not including unfinished attic with 380 sq ft & perm. stairs), 4 bedrooms plus bonus and exercise room agents mentions could be 5th bedroom ( or office ). Three full bathrooms and a half. The listing also indicates a "tech room" this is a smallish office of the kitchen, GREAT for computer, mail, all the household functioning stuff!

The landscaping and location with Highcroft are great, short walk to school, Sears Farm Park and the pool. I know the neighbors, awsome all around.

501 chander grant bonus

Above are pictures of the kitchen with granite and bonus room with built-ins.

Why is this house a must look at from my perspective?

Space + Price + Amenities

Priced at $389,000 this home is $124.40 a square foot! That is silly. In my older blogs you can see that were screaming value at homes in the $135 a square foot range. The median price per square foot on the active listings is $145!

The house across the streets is pending at $400,000 for 2750 sq feet. A great house as well. There are very few develpments that have amenities Highcroft has, to get them at under $125 a square is crazy.

Looking for the right agent or right home? I don't list or sell homes but I can point you to the right person to help you based on your needs. Email me.
