If you're cross shopping this against the builder's inventory, here's what actually sets 1623 Baymont Ct apart. You'll get the same Dakota floor plan and the same quality build either way. What you won't find in their inventory is this exact combination: a cul de sac, a backyard that's actually flat and usable, woods behind you instead of another house, and a fenced backyard. This lot has all four, and since the seller already had the aluminum fence installed, which means one less thing on your to-do list after closing. Built in 2023 and still under the builder's home warranty. The kitchen has a large island, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry, all opening straight into the great room. Nobody's stuck cooking alone while everyone else is hanging out! Add EVP flooring on the main level, quartz countertops throughout, and double sinks in both the primary and guest baths. The laundry room connects straight through from the primary closet, so laundry day just got a lot shorter. There's also a flexible front room off the entry. Office, dining room, playroom, home school or whatever you need it to be, it flexes with you. Upstairs, a loft separates the primary suite from the other bedrooms, so everyone gets a little breathing room. Here's the part that really matters long after moving day. This home has spray foam insulation in the walls and attic (everywhere except the garage walls that don't back living space), and the builder was a back to back ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year winner in the years this home was built. Which means you won't find this level of energy efficiency in any other new construction or resale home on the market right now. VA and USDA financing are both available here, meaning qualified buyers may be able to move in with zero down. Feel free to run the numbers — with the right loan, your move-in cost could be almost nothing but the moving truck. Cash, conventional and FHA financing are also on the table, so however you're planning to buy, there's already a path built in. And since Harper Landing comes with its own community pool and playground, you're getting more built in value here(https://www.townofstanley.org/Calendar.aspx?EID=426) than the price tag alone lets on. Stanley is a fun little town to land in, with a history that's anything but ordinary. Gold prospectors were exploring Stanley Creek back in the 1700s, and the town later grew around the railroad as Brevard Station. Today, downtown Main Street still has that small-town feel, complete with a local barber shop, a train mural celebrating its railroad roots, giant cinnamon rolls at Sweet Shananigans and Country Fest taking over downtown the first Saturday in October. Add Harper Park, with its splash pad, playground, paved walking track, nature trail and sports fields, and it's easy to see why Stanley has long called itself "A Friendly Place." (https://www.gogastonnc.org/places/harper-park-in-stanley) So here's the real question. Are you going to be the one who gets this lot, this warranty, this fence, and this energy efficiency all in one house? Or are you going to be the one who calls next week asking if it's still available? Homes like this one don't last in Harper Landing, and this is the only one that checks every box. Showings begin September 17th at 1:00 PM.
