Not quite Walden but we think you'll appreciate the modern amenities of this 5+ acre woodland retreat! Nestled among the trees just a few minutes south of Hillsborough in a small neighborhood this retreat offers the privacy and seclusion you crave with the proximity to town you need for those essentials Thoreau could do without. Crabtree built 3 bedroom 2.5 bath one level home with a garage/bonus addition that boasts lots of expansion possibilities for a workout room down, or studio above in the easily finishable space. The wood stove features prominently in the great room with it's soaring ceilings and the open floorplan allows it to heat the whole house quickly. Hardwood floors throughout the living area, tile in the mud room, fenced rear yard for the pooches and don't miss the screened porch which allows you to enjoy the setting nearly year round. This one is a can't miss!
