Rarely does an opportunity become available in Renaissance at Regency, one of Cary's most exclusive communities. Built in 2007 and meticulously maintained, this custom residence pairs craftsmanship and detail rarely replicated today with mature landscaping, a private wooded backdrop, and a floor plan equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. European-influenced architecture combines a substantial stone-and-brick façade with dark standing-seam metal accents, mature evergreens, and a covered entry with arched wood-and-glass double doors. Inside, travertine tile, substantial crown moulding, and detailed millwork set the tone from the foyer. A private home office features paned French doors, a transom, plantation shutters, and a tray ceiling, while the formal dining room is finished with raised-panel wainscoting and a stepped tray ceiling. A butler's pantry with a wet bar, prep sink, wine refrigerator, and diamond-lattice wine storage leads to a generously scaled kitchen designed for serious cooking. A Wolf gas range beneath a custom arched hood is joined by a Sub-Zero built-in refrigerator, Jenn-Air wall oven and warming drawer, two dishwashers, granite countertops, extensive cabinetry, a center island, and a separate prep island with seating. Travertine backsplash tile and a framed mosaic inset above the range add another layer of custom detail. The adjoining breakfast area is wrapped in transom-topped windows and offers two direct connections outdoors—one to the screened porch and another to the patio. Just beyond, the expansive living room is centered around a gas fireplace with a paneled overmantel, flanked by custom built-ins and plantation-shuttered windows overlooking the backyard. The screened porch is especially inviting: cozy, private, and surrounded by mature trees. Brick walls, a stained tongue-and-groove ceiling, custom fretwork railings, a paddle fan, and a mounted television create a comfortable space for quiet mornings, game days, and evenings outside. Outdoor entertaining continues on the stone patio, where a kitchen beneath a cedar pergola includes a built-in gas grill, granite countertops, dedicated space for a smoker, and a stacked-stone surround. Nearby, a circular fire pit is framed by a curved seat wall with integrated lighting. A level fenced lawn beyond is bordered by mature hardwoods, giving the backyard both usable space and privacy. Privately positioned on the main level, the primary suite features hardwood floors, a tray ceiling, and a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Its exceptionally spacious walk-in closet connects directly to the laundry room, complete with a full-size sink and generous folding counter. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms each have a walk-in closet and en suite bath, accompanied by a spacious bonus room. The finished third level, filled with natural light and complete with its own en suite bath, offers the flexibility to serve as yet another bedroom, guest retreat, fitness studio, game room, or media room. Plantation shutters, substantial crown moulding, and custom millwork continue throughout, while a three-car garage is discreetly positioned behind the home. The Symphony Lake Greenway is just steps away, with Koka Booth Amphitheatre nearby and the shopping, dining, and entertainment at Waverly Place and Crossroads only minutes from home. It is a home defined by the accumulation of details—thoughtful craftsmanship, flexible living spaces, a private setting, and an unusually easy connection between indoors and out.

Before there was even a Cary, the Maynard-Stone House stood proudly within its future borders. Built in 1860—eleven years before Cary was incorporated—this remarkable Greek Revival residence offers a rare blend of history, modern restoration, privacy, and location. Moved from the corner of High House Road and Davis Drive to save it from development, it now rests on 2.85 secluded acres at the end of a private dead-end road. Despite the solitude, it is remarkably close to all the best that Cary has to offer. On approach, revealed within the trees, is a monumental two-story front porch with tall fluted Ionic columns- introducing a home of impressive scale and unmistakable Southern character. The 4,592 square foot residence offers four bedrooms (including a downstairs en-suite), three-and-a-half baths, oversized rooms, and soaring 10 plus foot ceilings. Original heart-pine floors, hand-milled moldings, and 165-year-old solid wood doors preserve its craftsmanship, while exposed beams, joints, and wooden pegs reveal its timber-framed construction. Rarer still, is the peace of mind that comes with the comprehensively renovated infrastructure. Stripped to its over-built 1860 frame and painstakingly remodelled in 2020-21, the Maynard-Stone House received new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, gas lines, windows, drywall, septic, on-demand water heating, pool & well pumps, and custom-milled cedar siding. A standing-seam metal roof was installed in 2010. The result is exceedingly difficult to find: the presence, natural materials, and craftsmanship of a 19th-century home without inheriting a 19th-century infrastructure. Designed for gathering, the expansive kitchen features nearly 38 linear feet of carrara marble countertops, inset cabinetry, 33 soft-close drawers, and a striking 15-plus-foot island. An ILVE Professional 48-inch black-and-brass eight-burner gas range pairs with a coordinating ZLINE refrigerator; as an integrated Bosch dishwasher disappears into the cabinetry. The generous primary suite boasts a bath enveloped in Grecian White marble, with a cast-iron enameled roll-top pedestal tub with wooded tub views. Other baths feature travertine, slate, and a hand-finished Tadelakt lime-plaster shower. Surrounded by mature trees, the enchanting sunroom creates a private, treehouse-like retreat. Outside, a hidden oasis awaits: a newly plastered and tiled 40-by-20-foot pool secluded from view, gently rolling usable grounds, and an open lawn invites gardens, recreation, future sport court, or a more self-sufficient country-estate lifestyle. An original tobacco barn and corn crib preserve the Maynard-Stone House's agricultural roots. Just over 2,000 square feet of unfinished daylight walkout basement, offers flexibility for storage, workshop/studio space, or future finished use. Prestonwood Country Club's 54 holes of championship golf is 5 minutes away, with top-rated schools, Downtown Cary, RDU, Research Triangle Park, Downtown Apex, and amazing parks within easy reach. Saved twice—first from development, then through restoration—the Maynard-Stone House offers more than an 1860 residence. Its next owners become stewards of an authentic piece of Cary's past, restored and ready for Cary's future.
