Some properties simply give you more. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac on a private two-acre lot, 2804 Gaya Court offers the kind of space that is getting harder to find this close to town, without asking you to trade away convenience to get it. Step inside and the newly finished hardwood floors set the tone, light and fresh and genuinely spectacular in person. The main level lives the way a traditional home should, with 1,967 square feet, four bedrooms, two full baths, and an easy flow through common areas finished in those rich hardwoods, with durable LVP in the bedrooms. Fresh paint throughout gives the whole home a clean, move-in-ready feel. The primary suite is a real retreat: a large walk-in closet, a separate shower, and a soaking tub set beneath a picture window that pulls the outdoors in. Downstairs is where this property separates itself from the pack. The full walk-out basement houses a nearly 800 square foot apartment with its own private exterior entrance, plus interior access to the main home. Two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a full bath make it a true dual-living setup, ideal for extended family, a live-in nanny, long-term guests, or a legitimate income-producing rental or short-term stay. Alongside the ADU, two generous flex rooms are ready to become whatever you need: home gym, workshop, movie theater, studio, or rec room. Your call. Outside is where the property stretches its legs. Nearly an acre of the backyard is fully fenced, a rare luxury that opens the door to gardens, pets, projects, or simply the quiet of your own wide-open space. The main back deck runs an impressive 36x16, freshly painted and waiting on morning coffee, weekend cookouts, and dinners under the stars. It is an entertainer's canvas wrapped in mature privacy rather than neighbors' windows. The practical details are handled too. A recent roof and newer HVAC mean the big-ticket items are already checked off. And while the setting feels tucked away, you are minutes from downtown Hillsborough and a quick hop to the interstates, keeping the rest of the Triangle easily within reach. Space to host. Space to work. Space to grow. Space to simply get away from it all. 2804 Gaya Court is the rare property that says yes to all of it.

This gorgeously renovated home is ready for its next owner, featuring a brand new roof & no HOA! Set quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac, this house delivers a level of design and scale that's rare to find in a split-level. The renovation was approached with intention, pairing clean modern finishes with thoughtful upgrades so the result feels cohesive, elevated, and ready to live in from day one. Every improvement was completed with permits, adding an extra layer of confidence in the quality of the work. The main living area is truly a standout. Far larger than most homes of this style, the space offers the kind of flexibility designers & homeowners appreciate. It is large enough to comfortably support multiple seating areas, whether that means a conversation space, a traditional living room setup, or a combination of both. New 9-inch wide, 20-mil LVP flooring runs throughout, grounding the interior with durability and a refined modern look. The kitchen was completely redesigned with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a striking quartz backsplash that adds subtle dimension and polish. A large slider window over the sink fills the space with natural light, while brand new appliances and updated lighting complete the room with a clean, contemporary feel. All bathrooms have been fully updated, and the layout offers a surprising level of privacy and flexibility. The lower level features a true primary suite with a spacious walk in closet and an oversized bathroom, creating a quiet retreat separate from the main living areas. Upstairs, one of the bedrooms includes its own half bathroom, an uncommon and highly practical feature for guests, family members, or a private office setup. Beyond the cosmetic improvements, the home also benefits from meaningful mechanical updates including a brand new heat pump system & a whole house dehumidifier. Outside, the property has been refreshed to open up the lot and maximize the yard. Eighteen trees were cleared and the entire yard was hydroseeded, creating a clean slate for the expansive backyard. The lot sits on a cul-de-sac and is already fenced on multiple sides, making it easy to complete a fully enclosed yard while still enjoying the generous outdoor space. Location enhances the home's appeal. Residents enjoy the charm and amenities of Hillsborough just minutes away, with restaurants, shops, and daily conveniences like grocery stores close at hand. Outdoor recreation is within easy reach, including scenic trails and river access at Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area and Eno River State Park. Commuters benefit from convenient access to Interstate 40 and Interstate 85, making trips to Durham, Chapel Hill, and beyond effortless while still returning to the quiet, tree-lined streets of this peaceful neighborhood.

There's something about Hillsborough that makes life feel a little slower - in the very best way. 3722 Krystle Court gives you the chance to embrace that lifestyle while still having a home that is incredibly functional for everyday living. Here, mornings are made for coffee outside and weekends for gathering around the firepit. There's room to garden, create, tinker, entertain, or simply spread out and enjoy having a little more space around you. Multiple sheds offer plenty of storage, while additional outbuildings and craft spaces give you the freedom to make them whatever you need - a workshop, art studio, gardening shed, hobby space, or somewhere to finally tackle that project you've been dreaming about. Inside, the home is just as practical. Two full bathrooms on the main level add flexibility for everyday life, guests, or changing needs over time. It's a property that doesn't dictate how you have to live - it gives you the space and functionality to make it your own. And when you do venture out, downtown Hillsborough is less than 10 minutes away. Spend Saturday morning wandering the Farmer's Market, grab coffee or lunch downtown, walk along the Eno on the Riverwalk, and then come home to your own little retreat. 3722 Krystle Court offers that increasingly hard-to-find combination: space to breathe, room to create, a home that functions for real life, and easy access to one of the Triangle's most charming small towns. Come with your garden plans, your hobbies, your projects, and your ideas - there's room for all of them here.
