Property Description

Discover a truly exceptional and very private yet conveniently located home, ideally situated on a well-kept gravel road with the significant benefit of No HOA. Built in 2014, this residence stands as the original home on the property, defined by its magnificent, mature landscaping. The builder thoughtfully preserved grand, established trees, including majestic oak, maple, tulip, and cedar, which now create a stately, shaded canopy. The owners, both licensed NC Realtors, have lovingly enhanced this setting with complementary plantings like a graceful magnolia, vibrant crepe myrtle, and additional oak and maple varieties. Thoughtfully placed rhododendron, boxwood, and hydrangeas frame the yard, creating a picturesque, natural barrier. Outdoor living is a highlight, offered across three distinct spaces. The largest is the north-facing, covered front porch, a serene sanctuary where you can spend hours enjoying the sounds of nature, remaining wonderfully cool even in the height of summer. Off the kitchen, the backyard deck features an incredible amenity: an electric awning that rolls out effortlessly to provide perfect shade from the southern sun. Below, the lower concrete patio sits adjacent to a charming creek and wooded area, offering a peaceful, private spot for quiet reflection and frequent wildlife viewing, including visiting deer. Nearby, a prepared raised garden bed, framed with cinder blocks, awaits the avid gardener, offering easy access to the garage and water. The property also features unique enhancements, including a professionally-placed temple configuration—a circle signifying unity—designed as a dedicated meditation space. This home has been meticulously improved for modern comfort and efficiency, highlighted by a brand-new HVAC system completely replaced in 2024 and a replaced hot water heater in 2025. Further upgrades include a whole-house water filtration system and superior energy efficiency from full attic insulation and high-quality honeycomb blinds throughout. The interior boasts significant aesthetic and functional updates, including sleek backsplash tile and new under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, a beautifully tiled primary bath, and updated light fixtures. Storage is plentiful, featuring ample inside storage and a dedicated utility room on the lower level, complemented by an oversized 2-car garage measuring 730 square feet. This very special property offers a rare combination of natural tranquility, practical amenities, and substantial recent updates, creating a perfect, move-in-ready sanctuary.
