805 Cricketfield Lane
Cary, NC 27518A rare opportunity to own nearly 3,800 square feet in established Coventry Woods for under $800K — offering the space and functionality more often found in higher-priced West Cary homes, at a significantly more accessible price point. This classic brick transitional welcomes you through a light-filled two-story foyer into a well-designed floor plan built for everyday living. Formal living and dining rooms sit at the front of the home, while the rear opens into a more relaxed, connected layout — an open kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room with a wood burning fireplace overlooks the backyard. Move-in ready, meaningfully updated: the majority of the main level has been refreshed with new paint, refinished hardwood floors, new quartz kitchen countertops, and a new stainless steel appliance package. Upstairs, new carpet runs throughout. The first-floor flex room — genuinely versatile: located just off the foyer, this room includes a walk-in closet and direct access to the adjacent half bath, making it a strong option as a guest suite, in-law space, or private home office with its own storage and bath convenience. The layout also offers potential for the adjacent half bath to be converted to a full bath for an even more flexible guest/in-law setup (buyer to verify feasibility with a licensed contractor). A highly functional transition area connects the garage to the kitchen, offering laundry, additional prep space, and mudroom functionality that streamlines daily routines. Upstairs, a loft anchors four bedrooms and a generously sized bonus room, directly connected to a floored attic for extra storage, is ideal as a second living area, playroom, or home office. The primary suite is spacious and well-proportioned, with high ceilings and a large spa bath featuring dual vanities and ample counter and cabinet space. Outside, a covered back porch extends the living space for relaxing or entertaining, overlooking a fenced backyard with mature landscaping — including a fig tree over 30 years old and a productive persimmon tree — plus a separate enclosed area with a dog house, ideal for pet owners. Set in an established Coventry Woods location connected to some of the area's best outdoor and lifestyle amenities. Move-in ready and priced to sell.
