The luxe 2024 primary suite renovation feels like a private spa, showcasing a completely redesigned bath with custom shower, soaking tub, new vanities and countertops, contemporary toilet, modern flooring, and designer lighting, along with updated bedroom fixtures. Throughout the home, thoughtfully updated lighting (2024-2026) brightens foyers, stairways, office, bonus room, and bedrooms, complementing hardwood floors in the main living areas and creating a warm, move-in-ready environment. Outside, you'll enjoy the wrap around porch, a large deck overlooking a massive back yard perfect for entertaining, and a screened porch for intimate gatherings. The neighborhood's tree-lined streets, pool, and tennis courts, plus top Wake County schools are just the beginning of the benefits of living in Bent Tree.
