About This Home
Beautiful Colvard Farm's Home that Compliments its Gated 3 acre Homesite.
488 Colvard Farms Road is a very private 3-acre wooded estate that combines its transitional architecture with modern comforts. This comfortable haven is part of the gated community of Colvard Farms Estates, offering both privacy and exclusivity. This home boasts nearly 5500 square feet of living space with an additional unfinished 1390 square feet that can yield a 2nd Floor Owners Suite and a large temperature-controlled basement workshop or storage area. The home features 4 spacious bedrooms (including a first floor owners suite), 4 full baths, and 1 half bath. Recent upgrades include restored black walnut hardwoods, a new roof with warranty, two new high-efficiency TRANE heating/cooling units, along with a finished basement. The expansive lower level is flooded with natural light and has new high-end LVP flooring along with a home theater room. Additionally, a new full bath and bedroom makes it perfect for an in-law suite or guest accommodations. The home overlooks a beautiful pond providing serene views from all three levels. Although it feels like a secluded home, it's conveniently located just 2 miles from Southpoint Mall, I-40 and only 15 minutes from RDU Airport. The Colvard Farms community offers a variety of amenities, including over 2 miles of picturesque walking trails, a pool, a clubhouse with playground and newly updated tennis and pickleball courts. This property is a perfect blend of seclusion and convenience, offering a peaceful retreat with easy access to urban amenities. The 3 acre lot, with a move-in ready home, is the largest in Colvard's history. Don't miss this rare opportunity.
