1316 Copper Trace Court

Better than new — and that's not just a tagline. Built in 2020 and meticulously maintained, this 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home on a quiet cul-de-sac in Wake Forest lives and feels like new construction, but with one critical difference: every upgrade has already been done for you. The thoughtfully designed layout puts the primary suite and a second bedroom both on the main floor, with a dedicated flex room offering the versatility today's buyers demand. Upstairs, a spacious bonus room and third bedroom with full bath create a perfect retreat, guest suite, or private workspace — all with generous storage throughout every level. The gourmet kitchen anchors the main living area with GE Profile appliances and quartz countertops, flowing into a living room accented with custom wainscoting, trim, and a built-in cabinet unit with granite countertop. LVP flooring runs throughout, 10-foot ceilings and 8-foot doors create an elevated, airy feel, and under and over cabinet lighting adds that final designer touch. Builder upgrades include a GE Profile gourmet kitchen, upstairs bonus room with full bed and bath, and a direct exterior door from the garage. Owner upgrades are equally impressive: a 24x15 pergola patio with fans, lighting, and natural gas grill connection; laundry room with cabinets, counter, and sink; living room wainscoting and trim; beadboard accent wall upstairs; wood wall trim in bonus room; built-in cabinet unit with granite in the living room; under and over cabinet lighting throughout the kitchen; blown-in insulation over garage ceiling; air-sealed ceiling penetrations; encapsulated furnace room with radiant barrier; painted garage with custom storage shelves; custom shelving in hall closet and garage hallway; walk-in insulated attic with storage shelves; and a magnet picture wall in the garage hallway. Tankless water heater and roof both original to the 2020 build. Step outside to your private backyard retreat — backing to a protected green area with no future construction, delivering a rare sense of privacy that photographs simply cannot capture. You have to see this one in person. Quick access to US-1 and I-540 puts downtown Raleigh, Research Triangle Park, and RDU Airport all within easy reach. Downtown Wake Forest's revitalized historic district, Joyner Park, Falls Lake, The Factory, Wake Forest Crossing, and Gateway Commons are all just minutes away. This location, this layout, this level of finish — it simply doesn't come around often.
