If you’ve been dreaming of a home that gives you modern comfort, quiet surroundings, and a first-floor primary bedroom — all without blowing the budget — 76 Sourgum Court might just be your new obsession. Welcome to the most spacious floor plan in the Eatmons Landing Community in Zebulon.
This bright, airy home checks all the boxes:
USDA-eligible financing
only county taxes
newer construction which means no maintenance & move-in ready
modern finishes
room to grow thanks to a walk-out, unfinished attic you can customize later
Oversized 2-car garage
Basically, it’s the “have your cake and eat it too” version of house hunting.
Why Johnston County Home Buyers Will Love This Home
Primary Suite on the Main Floor
Skip the stairs. Enjoy the privacy of having the main bedroom on the first floor. Feel like you’re living in your own little retreat every day with a bathroom suite that includes a tiled shower and free-standing tub for relaxing nights.
Affordable Monthly Payments
Between USDA eligibility and no city taxes, your budget gets a little extra breathing room.
Modern, Move-In Ready Style
Light, bright spaces await with a home that offers plenty of natural light. This open layout is perfect for hosting family and friends.
Future Expansion Potential
That walk-out attic is practically begging to become a bonus room, gym, office, or your “don’t tell anyone this is where I hide” space.
Peaceful Location Without Feeling Remote
You get the calm of a tucked-away community, but you’re still just minutes from great dining, breweries, shopping, and parks located near Flowers Plantation, Wendell Falls, and downtown Zebulon.
Why Does This Zebulon Home Work for First-Time Buyers?
If you’re buying your first home, the opportunities that come with buying this home makes the whole process feel way less stressful. Between USDA eligibility, county-only taxes, and newer construction (aka fewer big-ticket surprises), it’s a budget-friendly win.
The layout is easy to live in, the finishes are already updated, and the location gives you that “quiet but convenient” sweet spot every buyer wants.
Why You’ll Will Love It
It makes no difference who is buying this home, the layout just works. Buyers looking to get into a home with a main-floor primary, you win! Buyers looking for additional bedrooms upstairs, you win too!
And when you need more room in the future, that walk-out attic is an instant upgrade waiting to happen.
The community vibe is calm and friendly, and you’re close to parks, sports, good food, and everyday essentials.
