North Carolina, Alamance County, Mebane, USA

Storybook Charm. Exquisite and Cozy. Step inside and you'll feel it immediately: light pours through floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights, vaulted ceilings soar overhead, and warm wood beams and trim give rooms a cozy charm. This 3-bed, 3.5-bath, 4,740 sqft home on a beautifully landscaped corner lot was made for both quiet living and gathering with loved ones. Modern farmhouse vertical board-and-batten siding, gabled rooflines and dormers, a cupola/skylight over the entry porch, and a welcoming covered front porch give it true storybook cottage character. The living and dining rooms share that same vaulted, light-filled energy, each with skylights, exposed wood beams, and beautiful hardwood floors. The dining room has its own gas fireplace, and just above it, a second-floor reading nook overlooks the space below. The kitchen is a true cook's dream, with a WOLF gas range (2022) with vented exterior exhaust fan (2022), custom cabinetry, quartz countertops (2022), a custom built-in LIEBHERR refrigerator, a new dishwasher (2022), and a generous island for prepping, serving, and entertaining. Just beside the kitchen, a small sunroom-like sitting room is perfect for morning coffee or birdwatching. The primary suite is its own private retreat, with a sitting room overlooking the garden, a gas fireplace, soaking tub, steam shower, and EASYHEAT heated tile floors. Outside, the garden tells its own story: a bench swing, a lush flower bed with two mature fig trees, a koi pond home to roughly two dozen fish, and a greenhouse for growing year-round. The private, large back patio is made for evening wine, grilling, or a fire under the stars. Additional highlights include a flex bonus room above the garage (used as a bedroom by the seller), a large walk-in storage space, an unfinished walk-in basement (used as a gym and wine room), a detached store shed with storage, an attached workshop and tool shed with garden and landscape equipment that conveys with the sale, and a 2-car garage with ample built-in cabinet storage. A backup generator keeps the primary bedroom powered for added convenience. Insulated windows and a new roof (noted on the 2021 MLS listing) offer added efficiency. A washer and dryer (2026) convey with the sale. There's even an attached studio with its own kitchenette, full bath, and private entrance, perfect for entertaining or a guest suite. All of this in a quiet, private SE Mebane location with no city taxes and easy I-40 access, roughly 15 minutes to downtown Hillsborough, 24 minutes to Duke Hospital, and 24 minutes to downtown Durham.
