Perched atop a gently sloping hill sits this beautiful, contemporary, passive solar home on 1.5 acres by Duke Forest. Stunning design with timeless, natural materials adds beautiful texture to the home. From the brick floors to vaulted wood ceilings to the metal roof, this truly is one of a kind. Large windows bring in the colors and textures of the outside in while french doors allow for a wonderful connection to the outdoor patios & deck. The brick flooring continues to the paths and patios outside and to the gently gurgling pond and winding brick wall. This outdoor space is truly designed to be enjoyed with beautiful private outdoor spaces all around the house. Made for entertaining with an exceptionally well designed kitchen open to the great room & family room yet also perfectly surrounded by nature allowing for quiet & cozy days at home. Plenty of space to work from home in the spacious and serene office and in the detached office space in the garage (cooled not heated). Extremely spacious 3 car garage is perfect for all sorts of fun hobbies & car enthusiasts. 5 min to Duke, 10 to downtown, & 20 to UNC!
