For buyers tracking inventory in Clayton this season, this one rewards attention. A 2018-built, four-bedroom, three-bath home in Ashcroft with a primary suite and a second bedroom on the main level is a rare find at 2,299 square feet. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and family room run together for connected living, with the kitchen anchoring the flow. A covered rear porch and adjacent patio extend the space outdoors, while a covered front porch sets the entry. The main level adds a laundry room, a mudroom, and interior access to a two-car garage. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and multiple floored attic storage areas, including a 24-by-8.5-foot space, deliver capacity that exceeds most comparable layouts. Ashcroft brings HOA access to the Fred Smith Company Sports Club with pools, fitness facilities, and recreation. East Clayton Community Park sits 2.5 miles out, Clayton Community Center 3 miles, Downtown Clayton 3 to 4 miles, and Flowers Plantation retail and dining 4 to 5 miles down the road. Harris Teeter and Publix are within 3 to 4 miles. US-70 and NC-42 are both 2 to 3 miles from the front door. A considered floor plan in a connected community. The kind of Clayton home that rewards a careful look.
