Property Description
Live smart, breathe easy, and spread out—8820 Melvin Street in Gardner Farms is designed for the way you want to live now. Set on a 0.58-acre homesite, this New Home Inc Selma plan pairs flexible spaces with future-ready features: 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 2,702 sq ft, and a 2-car front-load garage. From the first glance, the architecture welcomes you with a gracious wrap-around front porch—an everyday outdoor room that says hello to neighbors and provides a shaded seat for slow afternoons. Inside, light and flow define the main level. The great room connects seamlessly to a chef's kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, upgraded tile backsplash, and a generous island engineered for conversation, snacks, and homework. New Home Inc's signature Messy Kitchen—with sink and walk-in pantry—keeps the everyday shuffle neat and organized so the main kitchen always looks its best. A Pocket Office tucked just off the living areas makes remote work and household coordination simple without taking over a bedroom. Hosting out-of-town guests or planning for short-term stays? The main-level guest room with a full bath provides comfort and privacy without stairs. Upstairs, movie nights and game days land in the oversized game/bonus room—bring the big screen, the craft table, or the cardio bike; there's room for it. The owner's suite is your retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath with tiled shower (bench seating) and a walk-in closet sized for four-season living. Two additional bedrooms and another full bath ensure everyone has their own space, and the second-floor laundry means baskets travel fewer steps. Love the outdoors? A covered rear patio extends living space year-round for grilling or a quiet read, and that wrap-around front porch welcomes friends while framing views across the deep front yard. This home is, smart, new, and healthy by design. Smart home tech includes a Ring video doorbell for aware arrivals, an Ecobee thermostat for precise comfort, keyless smart locks, smart switches you can automate or control by phone, a whole-home network panel with Cat-6 wiring for faster, more dependable connections, a Wi-Fi smart garage door opener, and an EV-charging rough-in ready for your electric vehicle. ''New'' features include the Smart Door Delivery Center—secure and climate-aware package space—so deliveries stay protected; flexible spaces such as the Pocket Office and game room; a three-sided-seating kitchen island designed for everyday life; TechShield roof sheathing to help reduce attic heat; and a whole-home moisture wrap for a tighter building envelope. ''Healthy-home'' elements include MERV-rated air filtration (MERV-11 standard; upgradeable), which helps capture pollen, dust, and pet dander; low-VOC Sherwin-Williams paints; and fresh-air HVAC practices that help keep indoor air feeling clean and balanced. New Home Inc also builds with energy-minded methods and participates in programs such as ecoSelect® to provide third-party verification—an approach that targets improved comfort and efficiency compared with typical resale homes. Gardner Farms offers suburban ease with quick access to Fuquay-Varina and Raleigh for shopping, dining, parks, healthcare, and commuting routes, yet keeps the quiet charm Willow Spring is known for. Groceries, coffee, weekend favorites, and recreation are all an easy drive, while major employers and downtown Raleigh are within practical reach. If you're looking for thoughtful design, meaningful efficiency, and room to live your life—this is it. At 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and 2,702 sq ft on over half an acre, 8820 Melvin Street blends flexibility, technology, and a calm setting into a home that feels good from day one.
