Smithfield, NC 27577

Newly REFRESHED and ready for its next owner to LOVE, this single-level home sits in the sought-after Tralee neighborhood between Smithfield and Clayton, just minutes from everything. Only six years old with one owner, the three-bedroom, two-bath home offers more than 1,600 square feet of living space and has been updated throughout and the seller is offering a $3,000 credit at closing. Pull into the oversized two-car garage with plenty of storage, then step into the mudroom, where there's a spot to hang your hat, drop your coat and bag, and tuck your shoes under the bench. The laundry room is right there too, so muddy clothes can go straight into the wash before they ever reach the remainder of the home. The kitchen features new low-maintenance quartz countertops, loads of storage, and modern appliances. The informal dining area has room for a full-size table plus seating at the counter, and it opens into a large living room with a gas fireplace and built-in shelves. High ceilings and a ceiling fan keep the space bright and comfortable, while the open floor plan keeps everyone connected. The spacious primary suite sits at the back of the home with two walk-in closets and a private bathroom featuring dual sinks, a soaking tub, a separate shower, and a private water closet, so there are no traffic jams getting ready in the morning. Two additional generously sized bedrooms offer great storage and share the second full bathroom with a tub and shower combination, making them well suited for guests or a home office. Out back, the covered porch has a light and ceiling fan for early-morning coffee or late-evening reading. Beyond it, the fully fenced backyard features an oversized private patio that is already set up for a hot tub, with room to gather around the fire pit with your favorite people and your favorite beverage. An eight-by-twelve-foot barn-style shed gives you plenty of room for lawn equipment and extra storage. It's a short, peaceful walk to the community pool, gym, fishing ponds, and open fields for a game of football or soccer. You've found home. WELCOME HOME!
