pOpshelf – NOW OPEN!

pOpshelf is NOW OPEN in Fuquay-Varina! With essentials from cookware to crafts to home décor, they have it all! We recently ventured out to the new location, 1420 N. Main St, Fuquay-Varina, and we were thrilled with the finds! First and foremost, we were greeted immediately along with other customers who followed in behind us. They really set a happy vibe inside the walls of this one-stop store. Prices range from $1-$20! Currently they have a huge selection of Valentines Day themed finds including the perfect items to host a “galentines” party. Looking to organize this upcoming Spring? pOpshelf has numerous baskets, containers, and trays for any storage needs! They also have you covered on all beauty and bathing essentials. The lawn and garden section was by far one of our favs to wonder through. The selection of patterns and colors are on trend and well-priced. Their home décor section has the essentials and so much more. Beautiful pillows, throws, table linens, you name it! One of our favorite finds was a stackable cup glass set that looks like a fish, TOO CUTE. Other sections to venture through include crafts galore, toys, electronics, cook and bakeware, gifting needs, party essentials, and event a market area with a frozen section! Enjoy fast checkout whenever you are ready to head out with the assistance of an employee if needed. Be sure to check out the newest addition to Fuquay-Varina, pOpshelf, and see what the buzz is all about!

MARKET UPDATE YEAR-END 2022 | SW WAKE COUNTY

Happy New Year!
 
Just when we thought real estate in the Triangle could not surprise us anymore! 2023 brings us a much slower-paced market with months of inventory just beginning to look slightly balanced. Our buyers slowed way down; I believe partly because they were priced right out of the market with the rising interest rates as well as out of an abundance of caution.  Rents are high, but house payments are even higher.  I believe buyers at every life stage took a step back and are cautiously analyzing what is important to them in their household. Despite that, the Triangle is continuing to experience record growth which will continue to bring the buyers to our area. We will continue to see a shortage of re-sale homes as those re-sale owners that have refinanced are choosing not to go anywhere.

Welcome to 3812 Bostwyck Drive, Fuquay-Varina, NC, 27526

This ALL BRICK custom-built home sits in the perfect North Fuquay-Varina location on a beautiful and private 3/4 acre wooded lot.

We asked our homeowner to let us know what made them choose this home and the Southwyck neighborhood so we wanted to share with you what we learned!

“What first attracted you to your home?”

All brick home, hardwood floors on the first floor, the open floor plan, and a beautiful wooded lot that backs up to a creek. Inside features hardwood floors on the first floor. The location is unbeatable! Great schools for our kids to attend and outside of City limits!

Any memories in your home that you would like to share with your buyer?

Sitting in the sunroom or on the screened porch, watching the beautiful sunsets. Enjoyed watching the kids play in the backyard and the creek!

What would you consider your homes best selling feature?

The house is all brick and sits on a wooded lot, even more so the houses do not sit on top of each other in this neighborhood. Great location to easily get to Downtown Fuquay or to Raleigh!

Anything about the location or neighborhood of your home you would like to share?
