Every so often, a property comes along that feels like it has it all - beauty, space, efficiency, and heart. Set on 8.7 acres, this Durham retreat offers the freedom to create the life you've imagined: a hobby farm, horses, gardens, or simply wide-open space to enjoy. And while the setting is rural and serene, the home itself is ahead of its time in sustainability. Paid-in-full solar panels capture the sun's power, while a geothermal system draws steady warmth and cooling from the earth - working together to keep your electric costs astonishingly low. The highest bill? Just $23.75 for the month. The home offers a flexible layout to fit your lifestyle now and in the future. The first floor includes a bedroom, full bath, and office that could easily become a private main-level suite if desired - or serve as a guest space, work-from-home setup. A sun-filled kitchen with Corian counters opens directly to the deck, making outdoor dining a breeze. Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms provide comfort and space, with the potential to expand over the garage if more room is needed. The finished lower level offers a bedroom, a rec room, and walk-out access to a patio - ideal for guests, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Sustainable living, timeless comfort, and the beauty of the countryside - all minutes from town. This is your chance to own a property that truly has it all. See it, love it, and make it yours.
