About This Home
Open House Saturday 1-3 with a free coffee truck out front! Do you know that feeling when you walk into a home and instantly get the sense that it has been well cared for, maintained, and loved? Welcome to 304 Plum. Coming with your favorite updates (main floor guest suite, bonus room, garage, fenced-in yard), home warranty, and a pre-listing home inspection you can buy and live in comfort and confidence. This home lives large, with five bedrooms, a family room, bonus room, office, dining room, and eat-in kitchen. A big highlight of the home is that the new owner gets to choose whether to use the master bedroom that is on the second floor as the primary or the guest suite that is on the main floor as the primary. Entertain family and friends outdoors in the fully fenced backyard with patio, fire pit, and playground. Tinker in the shed and the dedicated workshop space in the detached garage. And don't worry about storage--there is plenty of space to store everything for your hobbies, the neighbor pool outings, and lawn care equipment. Now on to the impossible-to-beat location. Search far and wide throughout the Triangle--you will find no neighborhood like Ridgefield, a charming community with no HOA. From the full growth trees to the large lots void of cookie-cutter homes, you need to visit to understand! From 304 Plum, your family can walk, bike, wheel, or scooter to the local elementary school and two parks. Just down the street is Ridgewood Pool which is a neighborhood summer favorite. The Blue Hill District is less than a mile away and includes multiple grocery stores (Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Aldi, and more!), a movie theatre, shopping, dining, and the nearly complete University Place renovation (including a Chick-Fil-A and Jeni's Ice Cream!). And of course, your commute to UNC, Duke, or Route 40 from here takes mere minutes. For the family that needs an abundance of spaces in an accessible location, this Ridgefield home cannot be beat.
