2,387 sq ft $829,000 5.04 Acres 2 Miles from downtown Pittsboro
Privately situated in a picturesque rural residential subdivision with 5-10 acre lots, well and septic, and no HOA, this cottage home is less than a half mile outside city limits. Featuring spacious bedrooms with seating areas and walk-in closets and loads of storage, this is perfect for the family looking for more space. As you step inside, you’ll be greeted with hardwood floors, a cozy wood burning fireplace and an oversized bay window showcasing the outdoors. A generous, galley-style chef’s kitchen with gas range, walk-in pantry and multiple prep spaces easily accommodates several cooks. Along with a large deck and patio space with hot tub, this home is perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining.
Built on 5 acres with a creek at the back, this unique property is set up with water and electricity throughout, making this a functional mini-farm or gardener’s dream. Mature, fruiting plants include blueberries, plums, blackberries, figs, grapes and paw paws and yield more than 30 gallons each year.
A fenced kitchen garden hosts a gazebo with ceiling fan and fountain where you can rest surrounded by ornamentals, medicinal and culinary herbs. Plant and harvest anytime in your high tunnel greenhouse complete with water, lighting, thermostat regulated fans and roll up sides for year round use. Gather eggs from cage free chickens and turkeys nesting in coops shaded at the edge of the woods. Enjoy using the workshop space for any type of covered project work in the spacious and well ventilated, high-ceiling 2 car garage with loft storage. Utilize the small barn with skylight and lean-to wood storage for tools and tack. It’s like living in a state park when you can camp in your own backyard; the small camping cabin near the shaded creek is a fun place to cool off and prepare campfire meals.
