Property details

About 524 N Occoneechee St

Enjoy a serene, bucolic setting just blocks away from historic downtown Hillsborough. Almost a full acre (subdividable) park-like corner lot with a head-to-toe interior renovation. The current owners have completely modernized this home while adding to its functionality with a 2nd bedroom and bathroom on the lower level. You are instantly captivated upon entry with the bright natural light and soaring cathedral ceilings that make the spaces on the main floor live large! Everything in the kitchen is shiny and new (cabinets, quartz countertops, sink, and appliances -Bosch induction range/dishwasher/microwave/refrigerator)! Additionally, the entire interior has fresh paint, new hardwoods in main living areas, and a walk-in closet was added to the first floor primary bedroom. The upstairs loft is the ideal office/flex space with two areas of abundant storage. The lower level is light and bright with a walkout slider to the patio. Aside from the den/family room there is a spacious bedroom and a huge bathroom/laundry room combo with granite countertops, walk-in tiled shower w/frameless glass, and a lot of storage plus a brand new LG washer and dryer that will convey with the home. There are so many more ''unseen'' improvements that were made: Rinnai tankless water heater, new electrical panel, and waterproofing/drainage corrections (with warranty). This special retreat has everything you could want- fresh updates combined with the most amazing location close to everything Hillsborough and an easy drive to Duke, UNC, Elon.....everything Triangle or Triad! Just wait until the magical Botanical Garden blooms in spring. This is a gardener's dream that is continuously the envy of all of the neighbors and has been in past Town Garden Tours!
