This 1917 farmhouse is perched atop one of the most gorgeous slices of pasture and farmland in all of Durham County. The rustic details are all accounted for: tongue and groove ceilings; original hardwood flooring throughout; large rooms with ample headroom, and porches for days. Lest you worry that it's all 100+ years old, modern details include a zoned mini-split system throughout the house, updated kitchen; newer metal roof, and newer well and septic system. Fresh paint and lighting tops it all off. Take in the views while watching your four legged friends (horses? dogs? cats?) peruse the cleared land all around the house or cavort among the grove of black walnut trees. A detached carport is ready for your pottery studio, gardening supplies, tractor, or even to become a stable for those horses you've always wanted.
Unique, delightful 1915 farmhouse on 2.75 acres. Idyllic setting on one of the prettiest roads in the Triangle. Two large porches and sunroom to enjoy the serenity & lovely vistas of countryside and neighboring pond. Birders & gardeners haven. Inviting home features high ceilings, nice moldings, large windows, beautiful hardwood floors downstairs & heart pine up. Glass front woodstove in living room, decorative FPs in DR & MBR. There is space to add bathroom upstairs to create a private master suite.

RR
M/LR-A
Residential Rural District
The RR District is established to provide for agricultural activities and residential development on lots of one acre or greater and in conservation subdivisions. Commercial and industrial development is generally prohibited. This district is used to implement the Comprehensive Plan within those areas shown as the Rural Tier. Lands within other Tiers that have existing RR zoning are acknowledged; however, such lands may be rezoned to more intensive zoning districts consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The regulations of this district are designed to discourage the development of urban services and to encourage the maintenance of an open and rural character.
