Modernist Treasure in the woods! Located just north of Brookhaven, this 4 BR home has all the flair of a midcentury modern home plus the benefits of modest updates. Fabulous natural light comes in through the numerous sliding glass doors; most spaces freshly painted; new carpet in LR, on stairs, and in lower level flex spaces and storage room; Luxury Vinyl Planking in lower level hallway and mud room; refinished hardwoods upstairs. Sited on a wooded .46 acre lot overlooking a tributary of Hare Snipe Creek, it feels like you're in the mountains...but are minutes to Crabtree Valley, and super convenient to downtown Raleigh, Cary, RTP, and RDU International Airport via I-40. Great schools, too!
