About This Home

As of December 2022

"Close your mouth please, Michael. We are not a codfish." But seriously: your jaw will drop when you see this "practically perfect in every way" 3-level home on 1+ acres in Eno River-adjancent Placid Valley! The renovations & improvements have been completed in the "most delightful way," including a new roof & water heater, hardwood floors throughout the main & second floors & new tile floors in basement (plus catch the custom cabinets in the mud room at the garage entry), newer windows, updated appliances, & a huge screened porch overlooking Dry Creek. All bedrooms are en suite with ample closet space. A huge ceiling to floor stone fireplace in the LR ideal for snuggling up. You think, you wink, you do a double blink: but this one's no magic trick. It's the real deal. Walk to the Eno River State Park entrance from home, or just walk out into your own one-acre lot & enjoy the wildlife: hawks and owls, fox and deer, cardinals and chickadees! Specimen native plants throughout the yard for 4-season color and enjoyment. No "piecrust promise" here: just a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious place to call HOME!
