Three additional generously sized bedrooms and an oversized laundry room round out the second floor, making everyday living feel just a little more luxurious. A spacious garage, cheerful mudroom, abundant storage, fresh paint, and brand-new custom window treatments add to the appeal, while the vibrant Cates Creek community offers a pool, clubhouse, playgrounds, and scenic walking trails. All of this, just minutes from everything charming Hillsborough has to offer, this home truly checks every box.
