Property Description
Where Style Meets Self-Sufficiency - Modern Farmhouse on 3+ Acres Welcome to this stunning custom-built modern farmhouse located in the desirable Boca Estates community of Sanford, NC. Built in 2022 and situated on a private 3.11-acre lot, this thoughtfully designed 1.5-story home offers 3,034 square feet of beautifully finished living space with high-end features throughout. The main level features a spacious primary suite complete with a luxurious en-suite bath, including a soaking tub, accessible walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms offer generous walk-in closets and share a well-appointed Jack-and-Jill bath. Upstairs, a versatile bonus/flex room with a half bath provides the perfect space for a home office, guest suite, or media room. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen impresses with custom cabinetry, lighted upper cabinets, an oversized island with additional storage, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a double oven. A large butler's pantry adds both functionality and style. Just off the main living area, a dedicated laundry room is designed for convenience with an oversized utility sink and a second refrigerator—ideal for extra storage, entertaining prep, or busy households. The open-concept great room features a dramatic cathedral ceiling and a full-height gas fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. A formal dining room and welcoming entry foyer complete the main living spaces. Enjoy year-round outdoor living on the screened porch with its own cathedral ceiling and cozy wood-burning fireplace. The expansive lot provides privacy and room to roam, enhanced by a raised bed garden with automatic watering and a dedicated garden shed. Additional highlights include LVP flooring throughout, solid wood doors (many with accessible widths), modern LED lighting with dimmers, ceiling fans, and a tankless on-demand hot water system with constant loop. Energy efficiency and reliability are enhanced by a solar array for minimal utility costs, a whole-home 24KW generator with a 10-year warranty, and an owned 1,000-gallon propane tank. The home also features a 2.5-car garage with a maintenance-free epoxy floor, a cement driveway with extra parking, large attic storage, durable Hardie board siding, and architectural shingles. Located in a quiet neighborhood with streetlights and spacious lots, this property offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience—just 10 minutes from shopping and amenities and within the Lee County School District. This exceptional home combines modern comfort, energy efficiency, and timeless farmhouse style—ready for you to move in and enjoy.
