    What's special

    Mature hardwoods
    The train trestle view over New Hope Creek sets the scene for this amazing property! The existing home on this nearly 4 acre lot has been beautifully renovated and has water on 2 sides. The expansive deck off of the primary bedroom was made from red oak harvested from the land. Conveniently located between I40 and I85 you can get to UNC or Duke very quickly! From the deer to the cute fox family, you're never short of friends here. The low maintenance wooded trail that meanders by the creek is loaded with mature hardwoods. The adjacent lot (2.86 acres) is also for sale under MLS # 10158574
