That's why it made the list. It drew 198 saves on Zillow, a lot of quiet interest for one listing. That is 7 times the average save count among this week's finalists. I'm already sending it to buyers who asked me for something exactly like it. Here is why it rose to the top.

Why buyers kept coming back to this one.

Three full levels of living space, with hardwood floors through the main level and a remodeled kitchen with a farmhouse sink and a walk-in pantry. Upstairs holds four bedrooms, two remodeled baths and a bonus room with built-ins. The walk-out basement works like a small apartment, with its own bedroom, bath, kitchenette and laundry. A fenced dog run sits outside, and a newer roof, water heater and siding are already done.

From the listing: “A rare Cary combination: quiet cul-de-sac living in sought-after MacArthur Park with the White Oak Creek Greenway and playground just beyond your backyard, connecting to Bond Park and the Taylor Family YMCA.”
