515 E Cornwall Rd, Cary, NC 27511
What's special
Nearly 3,000 square feet, six bedrooms, three baths, multiple living spaces and a finished walkout basement—all in an established Cary neighborhood just minutes from Downtown Cary and Fenton. 515 E. Cornwall Road offers the kind of space and flexibility that's increasingly hard to find. The main level features mostly original hardwood floors, five bedrooms and two separate living areas, providing plenty of flexibility for bedrooms, home offices, hobbies, guests or everyday living. The finished walkout lower level adds even more possibilities with an additional bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, fireplace, storage and a spacious living area. Move in, enjoy the space, and make it your own over time. Several of the big-ticket items have already been addressed, including the roof (2021), furnace (2020), A/C (2022) and water heater (2024). The interior was freshly painted in September 2026, a pre-listing inspection was completed, and the seller addressed a number of items before bringing the home to market. Outside, a large deck overlooks the .4-acre lot surrounded by mature trees, providing plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden or play. And while the setting feels established and private, you're just minutes from Downtown Cary, Downtown Cary Park, Fenton, shopping, dining and entertainment. If you've been looking for a Cary home with room to spread out, flexible spaces and the freedom to make it your own over time, come see what 515 E. Cornwall Road has to offer. This home provides 2,994 sq. ft. of total professionally measured heated living area, including 2,222 sq. ft. above grade and 772 sq. ft. below grade. Approximately 155 sq. ft. of the above-grade area consists of a laundry-room addition constructed without a building permit. Buyers should independently verify square footage and permitting information important to their purchase. Seller is offering a one-year America's Preferred Home Warranty.
