Nestled on over two private acres between Durham and Hillsborough, this stunning 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and everyday convenience. Tucked away yet just minutes from all the dining, shopping, and charm of both towns, this property delivers space, comfort, and connection to nature-including trail access through the backyard leading to the Eno River. A welcoming wraparound front porch sets the tone for this beautifully appointed home. Inside, the main level features a dedicated office with custom built-ins and glass french doors, a lovely dining room, and a dramatic two-story living room filled with natural light. The grand gas fireplace and elegant built-ins create a warm yet impressive focal point for gathering and entertaining. The spacious kitchen is designed for both function and style, offering ample cabinet space, stainless steel appliances, a center island with seating, and plenty of room for a breakfast table. Just off the garage entry, you'll find a convenient drop zone and a generously sized laundry room to keep daily life organized. A main-level guest suite with a private en suite bath provides ideal accommodations for visitors or multigenerational living. Step out from the kitchen onto the screened-in back deck overlooking the expansive backyard and fire pit area-perfect for that morning cup of coffee or relaxing evenings entertaining with friends. With three garage bays, there's plenty of room for vehicles, storage, or hobbies. They currently use one bay as an amazing home gym. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, featuring not one but two walk-in closets and a serene bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Three additional bedrooms and a large bonus room offer flexibility for family, guests, or just hanging out. Two of the bedrooms share a convenient Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Other home features include tankless water heater, reverse osmosis filtration system in kitchen, upgraded well pump and a worry-free sealed crawlspace. Surrounded by nature, yet ideally located, this exceptional property offers privacy, space, and direct access to the outdoors-all while being just 15 minutes to everything Durham & Duke and just 17 minutes to the charm of historic Hillsborough.
