There are many who seek that ''perfect'' home in highly desirable Taberna. Most would define perfection by: condition, presence of updates, age, location, & landscaping. However, few homes here meet the majority of those attributes. Yet, this home is the Tabernian white unicorn & exceeds every attribute. Prominent features: vaulted ceilings in dining room, living room, & front guest bedroom; trey ceiling in master bedroom; chair molding in breakfast nook, kitchen, dining room, & main hallway; crown molding in rear and master bedrooms & main hallway; a custom built-in entertainment center by Zaytoun Raines in great room; two coat closets in foyer accompanied by mirroring custom built-in book shelves by Zaytoun Raines; a tankless natural gas Rinnai water heater; a natural gas forced air heating system; & a sprinkler system. As a bonus, you'll always know where you're headed with the accurate, inlaid compass medallion on the screened porch floor - an appropriate touch for a town with converging rivers, the Neuse & Trent! Top to bottom, inside & out, this home has been meticulously maintained & updated: new architectural roof Nov. 2018; encapsulated crawlspace (dehumidifer, vapor barrier, & sealed vents) Dec. 2019; new back porch vinyl railing Dec 2020; new carpet throughout March 2020; master bath tiled shower, including new plumbing fixtures, July 2018; & new skylight installed in master bath Dec. 2020. But wait, there's more: a front yard french drain; integrated LED exterior lights w/ aluminum housing (11 of 15 year warranty remaining), S/S transformer box (lifetime warranty), & timer; granite kitchen counter tops w/ updated under-mounted sink/faucet; & a SolaTube for natural lighting in kitchen. The landscaping is not to be outdone. There are hydrangeas, tulip trees, azaleas, fig trees, a butterfly bush, & more. .. .something's always blooming! Only one house away from fishing pond & from the nature trail entrance. Unrivaled in every way. .. and, perfect.
