About This Home

Just 20 minutes from downtown Raleigh, 205 Avocet Lane is located in Broadmoor West, one of Clayton's most desirable communities, and is now offered at $875,000, presenting a rare opportunity to own over 5,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. At the heart of the home is a fully finished 1,760 square foot daylight basement, a feature not frequently offered throughout North Carolina at this scale. Designed with both intention and flexibility in mind, this level includes a private bedroom, full bath, dedicated fitness studio, and expansive recreation space, creating a seamless extension of the home ideal for hosting, multigenerational living, or a private retreat. The main level is anchored by a first floor owner's suite that feels both elevated and inviting, featuring a spa inspired bath with a freestanding soaking tub, walk in shower, and generous closet space. A flexible front room offers the option for a formal dining experience or a refined home office, adapting effortlessly to your lifestyle. The kitchen is both functional and refined, with quartz countertops, an oversized island, and abundant cabinetry, all opening to a warm and inviting family room with a fireplace and custom built ins, designed for both everyday living and intentional gathering. Upstairs, additional bedrooms and versatile living spaces offer the flexibility for a media room, secondary office, or guest accommodations, allowing the home to evolve with your needs. Outdoor living is equally considered, with two screened porches and a dedicated grilling patio overlooking a private wooded backdrop, offering a sense of quiet and privacy rarely found within a neighborhood setting. A spacious side yard adds another layer of usable outdoor space. Built in 2021 with four sided brick construction, this home reflects a balance of modern design, energy efficiency, and enduring quality. Ideally located near NC 42 and I 40, with convenient access to shopping, dining, and zoned for the Cleveland school district. This is not simply a home, it is a well composed living experience defined by space, flexibility, and thoughtful design.
