Magical and charming. That's the best way to describe this house with its peaceful, serene, natural surroundings. The light-filled family room is perfect for watching the myriad of birds feeding in the backyard that is surrounded by woods. If you prefer, you can watch them from the tranquility of the backyard pool (pool pump and filter replaced this year)! The living room has a stone surround fireplace - perfect for a curled-up, cozy evening, The land features a garden that attracts butterflies and other pollinators in the front, with native pollinator plants surrounding the home. You'll have a wonderful feeling of privacy, even though this is close to everything....I-40, RTP, Downtown Durham, Streets at Southpoint, and so much more. The home has been pre-inspected, and all indicated repairs have been completed - including replacement of the home's electrical wiring. Yes, this home is magical and charming - you'll love it!
