## Description

### Agent Description
One-level living in Penrith, convenient to RDU airport, RTP, I-40, and more. This home has been freshly painted and has updated lighting inside. There is a covered front porch leading in to the foyer with hardwoods. The sunken living room has built-in bookcases flanking the fireplace with brick surround and gas logs. The galley-style kitchen has a sunny breakfast area and a new stainless steel stove and range hood. The refrigerator, washer, and dryer all convey. There is a formal dining room. 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths. Best feature of the house is the oversized screened porch overlooking the private backyard with large storage shed for gardening tools and supplies or a workshop space. There is another storage area against the back of the house. Fenced yard. Large, flat lot.
