No need to leave the state when you already feel like you're in the Foothills of North Carolina. This 3 bedroom 3 bath home sits on the edge of a hill overlooking the heavily wooded backdrop of Howell Creek, invoking the peacefulness of a lodge in the middle of the mountains. Enjoy the sunrise over the 6th green of Tuscawilla Country Club in the morning from the back deck, and a glass of wine in the evening from a second deck off the dining room. Like having visitors? The cozy downstairs hosts a private living area with wet bar, fridge, fireplace and attached 3rd bedroom complete with en suite. Both the private living area and bedroom have sliding glass doors leading out to their own private patio overlooking the heavily wooded creek. Back upstairs you'll find the ceiling in the living area finished with tongue and groove cedar beams, adding to the charm of the home. The kitchen has plenty of storage including a separate walk in pantry and second refrigerator. The Master Bedroom is generous in size, includes a closet finished with custom shelving and sliding glass doors leading out to the rear deck. With 7 sets of sliding glass doors and 3 different Decks/Patios, you will find plenty of options to "bring the outside in". If you play golf, jump in your golf cart parked in your covered cart parking spot right at the entrance to your home. Take it to social events at Tuscawilla Country Club or maybe dinner on the outside patio at Dominics Restaurant, both located right within the community. When you return home, don't worry about maintaining the lawn because that is already taken care of by your HOA. Home repairs should be minimal as well with the roof, 2 a.c. units, and dishwasher all replaced within the past 5 years. Don't miss this opportunity and call today to schedule your own private showing!
