Spanning nearly five tranquil acres just beyond Old Salem Road, this impeccably refreshed Roxboro residence reconciles secluded repose with everyday accessibility. Set well back from the thoroughfare, the property welcomes visitors into an atmosphere of quiet detachment, though uptown shopping and dining remain merely minutes away. The primary level champions fluid, unencumbered living, anchored by a sprawling main-floor suite outfitted with both a deep soaking tub and a walk-in shower. Accompanied by dual living spaces, a formal dining room, and an exceptionally spacious utility area, this floor is engineered for both daily ease and entertaining. At the center of the residence sits a striking culinary workspace featuring a central prep island and an intimate breakfast nook that merges effortlessly into the formal dining zone. Beyond lies a screened-in back porch, opening outward to a vast, peaceful rear yard. Engineered with animal companions in mind, this partially enclosed sanctuary boasts premium turf, a drainage system, and both hot and cold outdoor water spigots designed to simplify pet care. The upper level unfolds from an open central landing, distributing four substantial bedrooms, an expansive full bathroom, a flexible bonus area, and an additional auxiliary space ready to adapt to individual pursuits. Adding further functional depth, a partially finished lower level provides an exceptional canvas for a media lounge, private fitness studio, or secluded guest quarters. Rounded out by an attached two-car garage and comprehensive, move-in-ready enhancements throughout, this singular property delivers an extraordinary standard of space and comfort.
