Set amid towering trees, a babbling creek, and abundant wildlife, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home offers a rare blend of natural serenity and prime accessibility—close to I-85, I-40, and the Triangle's renowned universities, medical centers, and cultural attractions.

Two expansive decks overlook the whisper of a creek below, offering the perfect backdrop for grilling, entertaining friends, or simply unwinding with a quiet cup of coffee as deer meander through your backyard. For extended family or guests, the separate 1-bedroom in-law suite above the 3-car garage ensures both comfort and privacy. This home's solid structure and generous proportions create a blank canvas awaiting your cosmetic updates—fresh paint, new flooring, and custom finishes can transform it into the custom masterpiece you've always envisioned.

Don't miss the opportunity to claim this sought-after balance of privacy, acreage, and convenience in one of North Carolina's most desirable communities.
