Step inside and your eye is drawn straight through the home to the light-filled two-story family room, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame the landscape beyond as a serene natural backdrop. Custom built for the current owners in 2016, this brick home feels airy, bright, and welcoming--open, connected spaces that are impressive in scale yet wonderfully easy to live in. At the heart of the home, the family room centers around a sleek linear fireplace and generous wall space for artwork, creating a dramatic yet relaxed gathering space that connects naturally to the kitchen and outdoor living areas. Designed by professional chefs and local restaurateurs, the kitchen pairs beautiful materials with serious capability. A 48'' BlueStar range and Miele multi-function steam oven anchors the space, set against a striking granite feature wall and honed black granite countertops. A large working island and peninsula seating open to the breakfast area and family room, making it just as comfortable for everyday meals as it is for entertaining. Nearby, a temperature-controlled walk-in wine room and adjacent wine bar connect easily to the dining room. Behind the scenes, a well-appointed scullery, drop zone, and generous laundry room support the home's daily rhythms. Indoor and outdoor living integrate seamlessly with a custom built sauna just off the morning room. The screened porch offers its own grilling kitchen, while the heated and cooled saltwater pool and spa overlook a private pond surrounded by protected woods- the perfect setting for relaxing with family or gathering with friends. A separate outdoor cooking area, featuring a wood-fired pizza oven and Argentinian grill makes long evenings outside feel natural and unhurried. The main-floor primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a sitting area, a spa-like bath, and private access to the outdoor spa. Upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms, two baths, a fitness room, and a spacious bonus/billiards room where the table will remain. Set at the end of a cul-de-sac in a neighborhood of just twenty homes, the property enjoys exceptional privacy, beautifully curated landscaping, and a calm natural setting. Though the home makes a striking first impression from the street, inside it feels relaxed, livable, and surprisingly easy--designed so every space can be used and enjoyed. Conveniently located with quick access to I-40, RDU Airport, Southpoint and all things Triangle, this home offers ease, privacy, and a calm, natural setting. Inside and out, it's built to be lived in--spaces flow, light fills the rooms, and every corner feels intentional.
