Better than new - and priced $23,000 below what Meritage is charging for comparable new construction nearby. This 2024-built Topaz townhome in the sold-out Georgetown Crossing community is move-in ready, energy-efficient, and loaded with the upgrades buyers are looking for. THE HOME Step into an open-concept main level designed for the way people actually live. The kitchen anchors the space with a center island, walk-in pantry, stainless appliances, and generous counter space - all flowing seamlessly into the dining area and great room. Prefinished wood floors run throughout the main level. A convenient drop zone off the garage keeps daily life organized, and a half bath rounds out the main floor. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features dual sinks and a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, and the laundry is conveniently located on the upper level - right where you need it. THE UPGRADES The attached one-car garage includes a professionally installed EV charger - a rare addition at this price point and a feature the original builder does not include as standard. Whether you drive electric today or are planning ahead, the infrastructure is already in place. THE BUILD Meritage builds to ENERGY STAR certification standards. The heat pump HVAC, fresh air ventilation system, and low-flow fixtures are engineered to reduce utility costs from day one - not a marketing claim, a measurable difference in monthly bills. Built in 2024 and owner-occupied since October 2024. Everything is essentially new. THE COMMUNITY Georgetown Crossing is a low-maintenance townhome community with HOA-managed exterior upkeep at low monthly cost, no yard work, no exterior repairs on your to-do list. Walkable to Cabarrus County schools. Quick I-85 access for an easy Charlotte commute. Surrounded by the shopping, dining, and entertainment of the Kannapolis-Concord corridor. The community is sold out. Meritage is not building here anymore. THE CITY Kannapolis is in the middle of a documented, funded transformation: a $500M development around the NC Research Campus, a new Novant Health hospital coming by 2030, the Millstone Village mixed-use project underway with a Harris Teeter and 400-plus residential units, and a growing downtown anchored by Atrium Health Ballpark and a thriving dining scene. Buyers who move now are ahead of the next wave of appreciation this market is building toward. 3 bed | 2.5 bath | 1,393 sq ft | 2024 build | EV charger | ENERGY STAR | $312,000
