Welcome to 4022 W Cornwallis - a nature lover's oasis perfectly situated on a pond between Durham and Chapel Hill. Exhale as you pull down the wooded drive through the gate of this over 4 acre property. The contemporary home is perfect for hosting with two living spaces, formal dining space, and kitchen with updated stainless steel appliances. The addition of white oak hardwood floors throughout the main level create a beautiful sense of flow. The true showstopper at this property is the private pond in the backyard. Enjoy the views from the screened porch or main bedroom of the many birds and other animals that call the pond home (The current owner has seen blue herons, green herons, a beaver, and an otter to name just a few)! Though the property feels like a woodland escape, this home is 10 minutes from the Durham Performing Arts Center, 17 minutes to UNC, and 22 minutes to RDU International Airport.
Private & wooded. Peaceful pond setting just minutes to Duke University/Medical Center & Duke Forest Walking Trails. Great opportunity to make this home your own. Spacious Two Story offering a flexible floor plan & many rooms have a view of the pond. Office. Great Room plus additional Family Room; each with a wood burning fireplace. Breakfast Room. Screen Porch. Walk Up Attic great for storage! Needs updating. Priced to sell 'As Is'.

RR
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.
