About This Home

Welcome to this exceptional newly constructed modern farmhouse finishing up in May 2026 in the heart of Forest Hills--a rare offering that seamlessly blends elevated design with everyday livability. Spanning over 4,500 square feet, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence is thoughtfully designed to accommodate both refined entertaining and relaxed daily living. The main level features a private guest suite, an expansive open-concept living and kitchen area, and a charming breakfast nook ideal for unhurried mornings. A light-filled study offers a quiet, inspiring space for work or creativity. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a home that feels both sophisticated and inviting. Upstairs, four additional bedrooms offer generous scale and natural light, while the primary suite serves as a true retreat--complete with a spa-like bath and a soaking tub overlooking the treetops. A two-car garage with finished space above provides exceptional flexibility for a studio, office, or recreation area. Outside, the expansive backyard invites endless possibilities for entertaining, play, or peaceful enjoyment. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this home offers a rare sense of privacy just minutes--approximately seven--from Downtown Durham. Residents also enjoy close proximity to Forest Hills Park, with its tennis courts and scenic trails. With construction still underway, buyers have a unique opportunity to personalize finishes and bring their vision to life--an increasingly rare chance in one of Durham's most sought-after neighborhoods.
