A full unfinished basement awaits your creative touches with convenient access just off the kitchen. You will find abundant storage throughout the interior of the home as well as the tall encapsulated crawlspace, providing ample room for life's many treasures. This home reflects hard to find, enduring craftsmanship as it boasts gleaming site-finished hardwood floors, detailed craftsman style crown moulding and custom millwork framing the gas fireplace . Drenched in natural light by large walls of windows, this thoughtfully designed open concept home provides an upscale but unpretentious feel. The luxury granite counters offer plenty of prep space for entertaining as well as comfortable seating. Soaring 11-foot ceilings, craftsman style crown molding, and three-panel interior doors create architectural presence while maintaining a light, airy feel. Lovingly maintained by its original owner, the home also offers the quiet confidence of thoughtful upgrades--including a tankless water heater, new vapor barrier and gutter guards--enhancing both efficiency and ease. The 4 bedroom septic has been pre-insptected for your peace of mind. Tucked on a peaceful cul-de-sac--just nine miles to UNC Hospitals and ten miles to historic downtown Pittsboro--the setting balances serenity with accessibility. From the screened porch, enjoy the gentle sounds of Wilkinson Creek below. This home provides privacy and natural beauty without burdensome upkeep. This is elevated, effortless living at its best--close to everything, yet quietly set apart.
