Neighborhood News

It's amazing what we learn when we look closely at something we've driven past for the last sixteen years.  That's how long I've driven by the MacArthur Park community over the years.  All through elementary and middle school as I'd drive my son to school, I passed this area.  It's literally right down the road.  Even though one of my buyer's bought in this neighborhood, I never really knew the makeup of the neighborhood.  So I set out to discover my next door neighbor...


What I found as I drove through MacArthur Park are beautiful homes of every size sitting on generous lots with full grown trees, well kept lawns and lots of people walking with their friends and pets.  MacArthur Park is hooked up to the Cary Greenway systems and is absolutely charming.  Not to mention it is located near an elementary and middle school that have very high ratings and a large active parent population. 


Prices welcome not only the first time buyer but also the move-up buyer.  In the past year homes that sold ranged in list price from $229,900 up to $349,900.  The sizes are varied too at 2000 square feet to over 3100 square feet.  Something for everyone!  Many of the homes have been updated and those that have not can be purchased at a reasonable price so you can update to your taste.


One more thing, it's close to everything you could possibly need!  The Cary YMCA is across the street, Bond Park for playing and fishing is accessible from the Greenway, and, most important, you can walk your kids to school and then walk on down to the Fresh Market and pick up ingredients for dinner that evening.  Or maybe you'd like to drop off your dry-cleaning, get a hair cut or shop for a new outfit...it's all right here in your own neighborhood!


Check out MacArthur Park the next time you're in the area at Waldo Rood and MacArthur Park Drive, in Cary, NC.  Enjoy your drive through the neighborhood!  Of course, if you or a friend would like to tour any of the active listings, give me a call!
