Is there anything better than a lake house in autumn?! This sweet Dutch Colonial (complete with a Dutch door!) is the perfect retreat, and only 15 minutes from Hillsborough or 30 from Durham. Pull into the circular driveway and you're greeted by almost 600 sqft of deck space, overlooking lovely Lake Orange and idyllic horse pastures. Come inside and the tall crank-out windows don't limit the view, but almost enhance it, framing individual scenes of living artwork. Wet feet are no match for the low-maintenance tile floors downstairs. A first floor bedroom and bathroom make the home easily accessible to all. The well-appointed kitchen has cabinet and counter space galore, and a large laundry/mud room means there is no shortage of storage. Your inner child will be delighted by the whimsy of the spiral staircase, which is surprisingly pleasant to traverse. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom means there is room for everyone. Imagine enjoying your morning coffee in peace on the balcony, before going for a boat ride or kayak paddle from your private dock. Whether you come to recreate, relax, rejuvenate, or get lost in reverie, you'll find whatever you're looking for. A renovated kitchen and baths, freshly stained deck, and roof from 2019 mean the only thing you'll need to do is unwind.
