A walk-in shower and walk-in closet turn the primary suite into a retreat, and the oversized 1-car garage gives you room to work, tinker, or just store the things that don't fit anywhere else. The builder's even sweetening the deal with an appliance package, so you can move in and start living instead of shopping for a fridge. And then there's Carolina Trace itself. This isn't just where you'll live it's where you'll golf two Robert Trent Jones championship courses, take the boat out on 315 acres of lake, play a set of tennis, swim, walk the trails, and gather at the clubhouse, all without ever leaving the gate. It's the kind of community people spend years trying to get into. You get to start here.
