About this property
Relax in an upscale, renovated gem
Enjoy your stay at this beautifully updated, authentic farm home. It sits on 21.5 tranquil acres, 10 miles north of quaint Hillsborough, NC. Original charm + top get away amenities include magazine-styled chefs' kitchen & updated baths that are balanced in delightful simplicity for you to enjoy your stay. 2 porches + large patio!
There's a one-mile walking trail around the property with a forest, beaver pond, river, field, and bridges. The Audubon Society awarded this a bird-friendly environment and identified numerous birds and local plants.
The property is fenced. Feel free to explore all 21 acres. Wear bug spray and check for ticks after hiking.
We're available if needed. Please feel free to call or text Sue with any questions.
Surrounded by farms and farmers. Pick your own Muscadine grapes at Parker Farm (Laws Store Road), stop by Botany & Barrel for brewed cider (Hwy 86), bring your bikes and tour the scenic roads. 5 miles to newly re-opened Farm and Garden on Hwy 86. 10 miles to quaint Hillsborough for the 8am-noon Saturday farmers market plus walk the Hillsborough River Walk Trail along the Eno River for miles. Additionally, Poets Walk at Ayr Mount a historic landmark site. So much to enjoy!
Ample open air parking on the circular drive for two cars along with one Level 2 charger for Tesla with adapter, or other EV's. One walking stick available, feel free to borrow; or, use the yellow umbrella in the laundry room. There's also sun screen and bug spray if needed, help yourself. Most nights, lightning bugs can be see from the porches or patio and occasionally the hoots from two barred owls along with all sorts of frogs in the distance (there's a beaver dam). Additional area sites and features are found in the guest book.
Close to stores, wedding venues, polo club, and dining adventures. Although this home enjoys 21.5 acres, it is not a hunting ground. This is a forestry preserve and Audubon certified property. No hunting, no guns.
