Welcome home to Hardscrabble—one of Hillsboroughs most scenic and established neighborhoods, known for large lots, mature hardwoods, peaceful ponds with fountains, tennis courts, pool, and playground. Situated on a beautiful corner lot with a long paved driveway and a fully fenced back yard, this well-maintained home offers flexible living spaces, abundant natural light, and room to grow. Inside, the main level includes a formal dining room with chair and crown molding, a spacious living room with recently restored gas-log fireplace, and a bright, open kitchen with stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, tile floors, pantry, and a sunny bay-window breakfast area. The vaulted sunroom is a true four-season retreat. A main-floor office with French doors also functions as a 4th bedroom, complete with a custom Murphy bed, built-in cabinetry, and locking doors for privacy—ideal for guests, remote work, or multi-generational living. A full bath with a walk-in shower is located nearby. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite includes vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, decorative ledge with lighting, and a large primary bath with dual vanity and jacuzzi tub. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bath, and the expansive bonus room offers endless versatility—recreation, studio, crafts, fitness, or media—with built-in cabinetry, workspace, and a wet-bar area. Storage is abundant: two hallway closets upstairs, laundry on the main floor with exterior access (plus a 2nd washer/dryer hookup upstairs), storage in bonus, two wired storage buildings, and a two-car garage with mounted exercise equipment that conveys and folds up when car space is desired. The covered brick carport includes power and a new ceiling fan (less than 2 years), currently used as a patio space. Recent updates (less than 2 years) include: smart thermostats, new exterior lighting, door hardware throughout, new gutters & downspouts, custom in-ground drainage network, new front & back doors, freshly painted shutters, yard re-seeded, restored gas logs, new faucets in primary & downstairs baths, and newly fenced back yard. Entire yard and exterior have been meticulously cared for. Hardscrabble is quiet, peaceful, and tree-filled, yet convenient to Hillsboroughs shopping, dining, parks, and quick access to I-40/85 for an easy commute to Chapel Hill, UNC, Duke, Durham, and Raleigh. With flexible living spaces, a well-designed layout, and beautiful outdoor areas, this home can support a wide range of lifestyles and needs—this one truly feels like home.
