5708 Crutchfield Road

Rare 2.5+ acre retreat backing to 65+ acres of woods held in a conservation trust (nothing to be built behind you!) and located just 15 minutes from downtown Raleigh and Cary! Custom-built in 1993 with solid construction and well maintained by original owner ever since, this home offers mostly main-level living with a floorplan that works. The vaulted family room is the heart of the home, centered on a wood-burning masonry fireplace flanked by custom oak built-ins. The eat-in kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, a breakfast peninsula, and a deep walk-in pantry with room for bulk storage and small appliances. The split-bedroom plan places the vaulted primary suite in its own private wing, with two additional bedrooms and a shared bath on the opposite side. Upstairs offers a large bonus room, a separate office with built-in shelving, and walk-in attic storage. Large utility room with powder room for guests. Enjoy the sunroom/screened porch year round! It overlooks the deck and deep back yard with room for gardening, pets and other interests. The oversized side-entry 2+ car garage includes a workshop bump-out. The septic system is permitted for four bedrooms, so the upstairs office or bonus room can become a fourth bedroom, and septic is placed to leave the backyard open to allow for a future pool. With original finishes throughout, this home is a perfect canvas for your updates. Sold as-is.
