Discover the charm of this custom quality-built home, nestled on 11.62 beautiful acres featuring a serene one-acre pond. Conveniently located just minutes from two Duke Hospitals, Duke University, Durham Tech North Center, Treyburn Corporate Park (Merk, Novo Nordic, Corning Life Sciences), Downtown Durham, RTP, and RDU, this property offers both tranquility and accessibility. Potential exists to subdivide the land into three-acre plots, as it was perked in 1986 for three homes. Enjoy the ease of one-level living in this spacious residence, which includes four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an office. Elegant hardwood floors extend throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, complemented by 9-foot ceilings. The expansive family room is a highlight, featuring a cozy wood stove nestled with a wood storage alcove. Bathed in natural light from large Anderson windows, this room boasts excellent views and a stunning 15-foot vaulted ceiling. The generous kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, and a sizable island complete with a utility sink. Enjoy meals in the delightful breakfast room, which also includes a wood stove for added warmth. Retreat to the primary suite, featuring a large walk-in closet. The spacious utility and laundry room includes a sink and a full bath for added convenience. An exceptional 36 x 14 3-season porch invites you to relax and enjoy the surrounding beauty, while the huge 29 x 33 garage provides ample storage space. Positioned at the highest point of the property, the home offers some open space ideal for horses or livestock. Recent upgrades include a new roof (2020), new HVAC (2020), and a sealed crawlspace (2021). The property also features an organic blueberry grove, scuppernong grapevines, multiple raised vegetable beds, a year-round creek, and a pond stocked with bass and bluegill. Please note that the unfinished 543.6 SF walk-up storage or flex room was finished by the homeowner without a permit and does not meet the 7-foot ceiling requirement; therefore, it is not included in the heated square footage. This exceptional property presents a rare opportunity for convenience and serene living with plenty of room to roam!
