This lovingly maintained Orange County homestead is just 5 minutes from downtown Hillsborough, 20 minutes to Duke University and downtown Durham, and 15 minutes to UNC Hillsborough—ideal for working from home or commuting into town. Set on a lushly landscaped and deer-fenced 2.33-acre lot, this quintessential farmhouse is a gardener's dream. The fertile soil is already prepped for planting, with existing blueberry and blackberry bushes, fig trees, pecan tree, grapevines, asparagus, and garden plots ready for your green thumb.

The home itself features a welcoming wraparound front porch and an oversized rear deck with a pergola—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, you'll find beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout both levels (no carpet here!), and freshly painted walls that brighten every space. A dramatic, two-story foyer leads into an open, spacious floor plan that includes a formal dining room, a formal living room or office, and a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen is designed for function and style, featuring a center island with granite countertops, a Viking 6-burner induction cooktop and double ovens, and a refrigerator that conveys. The main floor also includes a half bath and a laundry room with stone tile floors, built-in cabinetry, and wainscoting—washer and dryer included. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms plus a true bonus room over the garage. The large primary suite boasts a walk-in closet with wood shelving, and an en suite bathroom complete with a corner garden tub, glass block window, tile shower, and tile floors. Additional highlights include: abundant natural light throughout, solar panels on the roof for energy efficiency, two Trane heat pumps, side-load two-car garage, asphalt driveway, and minutes to Eno River walking trails. This special property blends country charm with modern convenience—ready for your lifestyle and vision.
