3 Dogwood ForestClayton, NC 27520

Description

Craving acreage and privacy without the soul-crushing commute? Welcome to your hidden gem! It is INCREDIBLY RARE to find a full 3.31 acres tucked away this close to everything Clayton has to offer, and even better--it is completely OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS! This move-in-ready home gives you the serene seclusion you want with the convenience you need. The heavy lifting has already been done: enjoy a newer roof (2017), a BRAND-NEW HVAC system, BRAND-NEW WATER HEATER, and NEW vinyl windows! Inside, cozy up by the beautiful DOUBLE-SIDED GAS FIREPLACE or relax with your morning coffee in the 3-SEASON SUNROOM. You will also find ORIGINAL HARDWOOD FLOORS recently uncovered from beneath the old carpet --they just need your refinishing touch to truly shine! Outside is an entertainer's and hobbyist's dream, featuring a large 16x24 POWERED BARN with loft, alongside an IN-GROUND POOL and POOL HOUSE! While the home is ready for some cosmetic updates and the pool needs a little TLC (we already have a quote on hand to make it easy!), the bones, location, and privacy are absolutely unbeatable. Bring your vision and make this rare Clayton estate your own!
