A private sanctuary on 10 peaceful acres, where one-level living meets thoughtful and creative design. Owned by an architect, this home is filled with unique touches that make every space special. At its heart is a cook's dream kitchen that opens to the expansive living area, showcasing a professional-style Fulgor Milano 6 burner with griddle and double-ovens range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a full-size separate Sub-Zero freezer, abundant cabinetry including upper cabinets ideal for long-term storage, a dedicated coffee station, and a gigantic pantry with utility closets. A striking Tulikivi fireplace anchors the spacious living room, radiating long-lasting warmth for cozy evenings. Each of the four bedrooms enjoys its own attached full bath, while the primary suite also boasts a wall of windows framing serene views and a wall of closets for exceptional storage. The convenient yet private office offers the perfect place to work and create while staying close to the action. Entertain or relax in the huge bonus/family room with a gas fireplace and plenty of space for game night, movie night or big slumber parties. Or retreat to the spacious sunroom where bird watching is a joy, and evening stargazing is a delight. A heated and cooled, mostly finished storage area provides remarkable flexibility, ideal as a workshop, exercise or hobby room, or whatever you can imagine. Even the garage is large, currently with half utilized as an amazing workshop, as is the oversized hidden parking pad. Near vibrant downtown Hillsborough, highways, and an easy commute to UNC and Duke, but with big rooms, natural light, storage galore, and even a whole-house generator all within the beauty of the natural setting, this house is a splendid retreat you may never want to leave!
