Property Description

Energy-efficient 3-bedroom home with solar panels, battery backup, high-efficiency HVAC, and exceptionally low utility costs in beautiful Snow Hill Preserve. This thoughtfully maintained home offers the rare combination of energy resilience, modern comfort, and peaceful North Durham living just 20 minutes from Downtown Durham. The light-filled open floor plan features vaulted ceilings, hardwood flooring, and seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The kitchen includes granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, while the dining area adds architectural charm with arched doorways and a bright bay-window dining room. The main-level primary suite provides a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, a large primary closet, and an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and separate shower. Upstairs, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient laundry room. Major upgrades set this home apart. A new high-efficiency HVAC system, a solar panel system with 15-kWh battery backup, and a wood stove work together to provide exceptional comfort, energy independence, and remarkably low operating costs. The current owners have accumulated a net utility credit while using the home's electric HVAC system year-round. The battery backup system provides additional resilience during power outages. The owned solar panel system and 15-kWh battery backup convey with the property. No solar lease and no solar loan to assume. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a large back deck, raised garden beds, and private backyard space ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or growing your own vegetables and herbs. Additional improvements include a 2020 roof as well as numerous energy-conscious updates throughout. Move-in ready and thoughtfully upgraded, this home offers long-term value, low utility expenses, and peace of mind that are increasingly difficult to find.
