Tucked into the trees of Duke Forest, this two-story Dutch Colonial pairs classic architecture with a fully renovated contemporary interior, completed in 2005. Walls of expansive windows reveal the property's showpiece: a large wooded lot planted with a mature collection of specimen camellias and sasanquas, providing beautiful color through the cooler months and a lush, cool canopy through the dog days of summer. The renovated cook's kitchen has granite countertops, a stainless steel island, top-of-the-line appliances, and elegant slab-front cabinetry. The first-floor primary en suite features a full wall of built-in cabinetry. It works as a main-level owner's retreat, or it can serve as a family room, den, or home office. Upstairs is a second primary en suite and three more bedrooms. The lower level provides tons of unfinished storage, an additional washer and dryer, and includes a 500 sq ft studio apartment with its own entrance and washer and dryer. It works well as guest quarters, au pair or rental space, or a private home office. A covered, screened porch connects the house to the two-car garage, so you have a sheltered path in any weather and a peaceful spot to sit among the camellias. Updated baths throughout complete the picture.
