Single Family Residence In Hillsborough

Set near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac street on 1.3 wooded acres, this extensively renovated home provides something rare in the Triangle: true privacy and birdsong quiet, with a state-park trailhead roughly 150 yards from the front door. From there it’s about a 10-minute walk down to the Eno River — daily access to the trails, rock crossings, and swimming holes of Eno River State Park, right out your door. Wrapped in warm wood siding beneath a striking green metal roof, with a full-length covered porch, the home has all the character of its setting and a fully modernized interior to match. Hardwood floors run throughout. The remodeled kitchen (2024) features new soft-close cabinetry, granite counters, a gas range, and warm wood accents. Three bedrooms and two full baths sit on the main level, with a large upstairs finished space could be an office, studio, or guest space. The newest addition is a light-filled four-season sunroom (2025), built for year-round comfort under a new zoned HVAC system. Outside: an oversized metal carport with a bay tall enough for an RV or camper, a separate workshop/storage building on a new concrete pad, a 30-amp generator hookup, and a Catalina luxury hot tub for soaking after a hike. Best of all, almost nothing is left to do — see the full list of upgrades below. Quiet country, living and privacy yet only 20 minutes to Durham, RTP, and Duke; a few minutes to historic downtown Hillsborough. $499,999 · 3 bed / 2 bath · 1,800 sq. ft. · 1.3 acres · Built 1993 · No HOA · Private well
