Welcome to this historic and charming, southern farmhouse with over 3 acres of gorgeous grounds. Swim all year round in the warm, pollen free, indoor swimming pool within the heated and cooled pool house with its own full bath. Relax after your swim in the screened in porch, great for entertaining, napping or dining. Bond with your family & friends playing frisbee golf and corn hole on the expansive lawn, or setting a picnic, flying kites, or coming out at night for the amazing dark sky star gazing. The fabulous barn on the property has so much potential and the property is zoned for horses. NO HOA!

Enjoy the convenience of an additional bedroom and full bath on the main level. Upstairs you will find 2 more large bedrooms with a shared full bath. The kitchen opens up to the family room, ideal for entertaining and spending time with family. There is a large laundry/pantry room right off the kitchen plus a cozy sun porch. Idyllic country living with organic fruit and nut trees that attract birds, squirrels, deer, and bunnies, situated mid way between the vibrant communities of historic Hillsborough and the Duke campus area in Durham, NC, just 11 minutes to either destination and a stones throw to Chapel Hill.
