Description

A carefully orchestrated dialogue between architecture and nature, this genuine Deck House was designed and built in 1984 both as a personal retreat and a welcoming space for social gatherings. Set at the highest point of these 7 private acres, located just 16 min. to Duke Hospital and 13 min. to the heart of Hillsborough, the exterior of the home features a stone outcropping which creates its own outside room of ferns and rocks which has been a small stage for several family and friends weddings,...A carefully orchestrated dialogue between architecture and nature, this genuine Deck House was designed and built in 1984 both as a personal retreat and a welcoming space for social gatherings. Set at the highest point of these 7 private acres, located just 16 min. to Duke Hospital and 13 min. to the heart of Hillsborough, the exterior of the home features a stone outcropping which creates its own outside room of ferns and rocks which has been a small stage for several family and friends weddings, with enlarged decks surrounding the area in a very natural flow. The double front doors and welcoming entrance area flow into the expansive living room featuring tongue and grove wooden ceilings, using post and beam construction which creates an over 14' vaulted ceiling. A massive two-story fireplace centers the home. The natural slate floors and wood posts are the perfect frame for the wall of floor to ceiling glass windows in the rear of the entire house creating a sense of expansiveness, where the surrounding nature is not just a backdrop but a main character in the experience of the house. The primary suite on the main level shares the best views overlooking the fields of horse farms beyond (during the fall and winter months) and features two separate primary baths and individual walk-in closets and a small office. The kitchen, with a new gas cooktop with down drafted ventilation on the large island with a secondary sink, a primary sink facing the outdoor decks and rock outcropping, wall oven and microwave, refrigerator and lots of pantry and cabinets for an easy to maintain clean look. The dining room shares the incredible views with the expansive deck and living room and creates an incredible entertaining flow that will inspire the host or hostess in each of us. Downstairs, 3 bedrooms with large windows have as a hub a second expansive living space with a wall of sliding glass doors to keep the house connected to the environment. Laundry and utility room downstairs help the house to have easy to access and function. The whole house generator with large, buried propane tank grant security in any weather. Come feel how this architect's dream made reality can be yours now.
