If you've been dreaming of a little more, this may be the place. A little more land and privacy. A little more room to create and grow. Set well back from a bucolic country road and surrounded by trees, 4811 Green Riley Road creates a world of peace and privacy. The wooded setting opens around the home to a sunny yard with space for gardens, outdoor projects, play, or simply enjoying the view. A wraparound front porch helps you enjoy slow mornings, while the open back deck is ready for grilling and welcoming friends. Inside, you'll find high ceilings and generously sized rooms. Hardwood floors in the living areas, crown molding throughout, and a wood-burning fireplace add warmth and character to the first floor. The kitchen features Dekton quartz countertops, a gracious island with pullout storage and seating, a large farmhouse sink, under-cabinet lighting, and a five-burner glass top range with convection and double-oven capabilities. French doors open directly from the abundant dining space to the back deck. The main floor primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bath. A half bath with laundry hookups and additional storage is also located on the main level. Upstairs are two more large bedrooms and a full bath. On the finished top floor, a bonus space can become a craft room, den, home office, playroom, or whatever best fits your life. Attic storage beneath the eaves adds practical storage. Then there is the detached garage, a destination in its own right. The expansive workshop is wired and equipped with built-in workbenches and a sink, giving woodworkers, makers, mechanics, and serious hobbyists room to create. An attached potting shed and greenhouse make it easy to start seedlings, tend plants, and extend the growing season. Above the garage, an unfinished upper level provides valuable project or storage space. Private country living does not mean giving up convenience. Downtown Hillsborough is less than 15 minutes away, downtown Durham is approximately 30 minutes away, and RDU International Airport is about a 40-minute drive. Ready for its next chapter, this home is waiting for your improvements, personal touches, and a little elbow grease to bring it back to life. Bring your garden plans, your projects, and your imagination. There is room for all of it here.
