This home strikes a rare balance—private and tucked away, yet incredibly connected—making it easy to truly enjoy where you live. Situated on a peaceful, wooded lot just shy of an acre, this beautifully updated home offers the kind of privacy and everyday convenience that's hard to find. Start your mornings with a walk to Glenn Hilton Park just down from the cul-de-sac, then enjoy being less than 2 miles from Hwy 127—where dining, coffee, and grocery options are all within easy reach. With Hwy 321 under 3 miles away, commuting to Charlotte or Asheville is simple and accessible.

Inside, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed throughout with updates that make it feel both current and comfortable. Fresh interior paint, newly painted exterior trim and stucco, refinished hardwoods on the main level, and new carpet and LVP throughout most of the home create a cohesive, refreshed feel that's truly move-in ready. The kitchen has been beautifully remodeled with new countertops and backsplash, and the primary bathroom has been completely transformed into a relaxing, modern retreat, complemented by dual walk-in closets.. Updated lighting adds warmth and style throughout the home.

With 6 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, the home offers the space and flexibility today's lifestyles demand—perfect for larger families, multi-generational living, or those needing dedicated work-from-home options. One bedroom with built-ins makes an ideal home office, while the large bonus room upstairs provides the perfect spot for a playroom, media room, or additional living space.

The finished basement offers even more versatility, living like its own private suite with a living area, bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette—ideal for guests or extended family. This level also features a wine cellar, perfect for collectors or those who love to entertain. Step outside to a peaceful patio with a waterfall feature just off the basement doors, with steps that connect easily to the front walkway—creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

The wooded lot provides a natural sense of privacy without the upkeep of a traditional yard, making it easy to enjoy your surroundings without spending your weekends maintaining them.

Additional features include a backup generator servicing the main floor, offering added peace of mind.

A home that blends comfort, flexibility, and location—creating a space that truly supports the way you live.
