Welcome to your own private sanctuary in Durham-just 3 miles from Route 17, yet a world away from it all. Nestled beside 22,000 acres of Cockaponset State Forest, this Adirondack-style retreat offers nearly 2,700 sq ft of inviting living space on 3 serene, level acres. Whether you're sipping morning coffee on the covered deck or gathering around the massive 26-foot fieldstone fireplace, every inch of this home is designed to help you slow down and savor the moment. Rustic charm runs throughout with wide plank floors, pine paneling, and hand-crafted details that create warmth and character. Large picture windows frame the surrounding woods like living art, filling the space with natural light and a deep sense of peace. The layout is open and airy-ideal for entertaining or quiet nights in-with 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and central air for year-round comfort. One bedroom is conveniently located on the first floor, makes for easy living or the perfect home office. Step outside to multiple spaces for outdoor living: an open-air deck, a covered deck, and a patio-all perfect for hosting, lounging, or simply breathing in the fresh air. You'll also enjoy a 3-car attached garage, full basement for storage, and the reliability of an automatic 20kW Generac generator. If you've been craving space, stillness, and a true connection to nature-this is your moment. One pet negotiable. Two months security and credit check required. This home was lovingly built using the most up to date passive solar elements of the late 1978-80's. Features like the physical placement of the house, specific overhangs that help regulate heating and cooling, placement of doors and windows. And the living/dining room has 14 inch walls with multiple layers of wood
