Located in the sought-after Candlewood neighborhood in East Fayetteville, this 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home with bonus room offers generous space, thoughtful updates, and a coveted connection to the Vandergriff and McNair school campus. A neighborhood trail leads directly to the schools, making morning routines, after-school activities, and time on the fields feel remarkably easy.

Renovated in 2018, the interior was reimagined to feel more open, cohesive, and elevated. The kitchen was the heart of that transformation: custom cabinetry extends to the ceiling, granite countertops provide generous prep space, and high-end stainless steel appliances complete the work zone. An integrated desk nook keeps mail and daily life organized, while the eat-in area offers both a breakfast nook and a flexible additional nook currently used as an office. That space could remain open for everyday living or be walled off to create a more private main-level office. A large formal dining room anchors the front of the home and easily accommodates gatherings.

The main level primary suite is a true plus in this floor plan. Generously sized, it features wood flooring, an updated bath, and a huge walk-in closet that is filled with natural light from a well-placed window. Across the home, wooden louvered shutters add a custom, high-end finish and a quiet sense of architectural order.

Upstairs, the layout is both functional and unexpectedly flexible. One bedroom includes an en suite bath and a walk-in closet, making it ideal for guests or a favored child. A second bedroom with its own walk-in closet connects to the bonus room via a shared full bath with separate vanities, allowing two spaces to function together or independently as needs change. The bonus room itself is large and adaptable, with extra storage that feels more like opportunity than overflow: one oversized closet currently serves as a playful kids’ hideaway, while another could be converted into an expansive walk-in closet, instantly making the bonus room a true fourth bedroom if desired.

Throughout the home, room sizes feel generous rather than tight, and storage has been quietly built into the plan. The oversized two-car garage offers additional capacity for gear, an extra refrigerator, or workshop space, so daily life stays tucked out of sight.

Outside, the backyard delivers a private, established feel. A large covered patio with outdoor fireplace becomes a natural extension of the main living area, inviting year-round use for everything from quiet mornings to football games with friends. A side porch off the kitchen provides an additional, more casual outdoor spot, perfect for grilling or slipping outside with a cup of coffee.

Well maintained and gently lived in, this Candlewood home brings together size, function, and setting in a way that is increasingly hard to find – especially for buyers who have been waiting for something lovely in an established East Fayetteville neighborhood with direct access to schools, shopping, dining, and nearby trails.
