Nestled in the lush woods outside of Pittsboro, NC, this log home sits on ten beautiful acres and is a retreat away from the hustle and bustle. This open and airy haven—with its numerous windows and abundance of natural light—is perfect for nature lovers and artists alike: hike through the woods on the existing trails or blaze your own; find inspiration in the way leaves dance in front of a setting sun and shadows play with the fireflies on warm summer evenings! Or simply recharge by enjoying a long soak in the oversized, jetted tub and then sitting for a spell on the expansive porch with a glass of wine or cup of herbal tea.
The main area of this gorgeous home boasts two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, and a kitchen equipped with high-end appliances. The open main floor is ideal for entertaining friends and family with airy common areas that wrap around a wood-burning stove, itself surrounded by beautiful stonework. Enjoy the view of the garden, an approaching spring afternoon thunderstorm, or the changing colors of fall foliage through the towering windows! The expansive kitchen has plenty of counter space and, with its large pantry and an abundance of cabinets, storage galore. The generous working space, including under-mounted stainless steel double and prep sinks, makes this kitchen perfect for preparing large meals or baking myriad batches of holiday cookies, in addition to the day-to-day. The custom counters are beautifully contrasted with the stone slab backsplash behind the Dacor gas range and the stone slab window sills.
This home is priced below appraised value and is being offered for only $875,000!
The main level also hosts the master suite, complete with private access to one of the two wrap-around porches. The spacious bedroom is attached to a magnificent master bath that boasts an oversized, jetted tub, custom tile dual vanity, double shower, private water closet, and a large clothes closet with an abundance of storage options. The master bath also enjoys private access to the wrap around porch. Upstairs, a sizable common area loft overlooks the main floor. It connects to a generously sized bedroom which has two large closets and enough space for a sitting area or two. Pass through the large continental bathroom—complete with custom tile vanities, custom mirrors, and a substantial amount of storage space—to get back the common loft area. The lowest level—with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and kitchen of its own—can be separated into its own living area, perfect for an in-law apartment or rental.
