409 Park Street
Cary, NC 27511An exceptional Downtown Cary building-site opportunity. Set on a flat, wooded 0.26-acre homesite measuring approximately 75' x 150', 409 W Park Street offers a rare chance to create something special just 0.4 miles from Cary's internationally acclaimed Downtown Park. With a desirable north-facing orientation, mature landscape, and beautiful specimen trees — including a 100+ year-old Pin Oak and a majestic magnolia — the property offers a compelling canvas for a custom home in one of Cary's most established and walkable locations. While the highest value may be in the land and future building potential, some buyers may also see opportunity in remodeling the existing approximately 1,100-square-foot ranch-style home, which includes 2 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a fireplace, and a one-car carport. The current residence provides a foundation for those who appreciate the scale, charm, and simplicity of a classic Downtown Cary home. The lifestyle is equally compelling. While visiting the property, take time to experience the walkability that makes this location so special. Enjoy nearby dining and gathering spots such as The Mayton, Academy Street Bistro, Zest, SAAP, Crosstown Pub, MC Cuisine, and two walkable ice cream shoppes, to name a few. Downtown Cary also offers nearby Class A office space available for lease, supporting a true live-work-play lifestyle. Or walk your dog to nearby Downtown Cary Park and enjoy its two dog parks, Bark Bar, Lily Pad Pond, Great Lawn, children's play areas, Scenic Skywalk, and many other thoughtfully designed park features. Whether envisioned as a new custom residence or a thoughtful renovation, this property represents a strong opportunity for buyers, builders, and investors seeking a foothold in the Downtown Cary market.
