617 Deer Mountain Road

Pittsboro, NC 27312

Custom-built 6,000+ sq ft home in Deer Mountain, a unique community where every lot is 3+ acres and you find a rare blend of privacy, connection, and freedom. There is no POA, meaning no monthly or annual fees, and the road is state-maintained. Thoughtful covenants preserve tree buffers and the residential feel, while allowing flexibility rarely found in similar communities--you can add a garden shed, raise chickens, build a pool or fence, or expand your footprint without approval. Deer Mountain also offers natural walking spaces and a welcoming, dog-friendly environment where neighbors gather and connect. Inside the home, the main-level primary suite is a true retreat, featuring dual spa-like bathrooms connected by a spacious walk-through shower with dual shower heads. The chef's kitchen with butler's pantry showcases high-end custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and Dacor and Bosch appliances, opening to inviting living spaces accented by Australian wormy chestnut hardwood floors and solid-core doors throughout. Gas log fireplaces warm both the main living area and basement, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the covered patio, which extends to a deck with a hot tub (conveys) and built-in grill. An oversized screened porch invites in the breeze and surrounding nature. Built-in bookshelves frame the custom fireplace in the main living area, and a flexible space currently used as a sunroom can easily serve as a formal dining room. A private office near the entry opens to an additional screened porch and the large covered front porch. Upstairs, an open loft and living area includes a built-in coffee bar with sink and refrigerator. Three spacious bedrooms, two full baths (one ensuite), and access to a Juliette balcony complete the level. The walk-in attic offers over 1,200 sq ft of additional storage. The finished basement is designed for entertaining, featuring a full-size bar with sink, a dedicated wine cellar, and a game area with pool table (conveys) and darts. A large flex space can serve as a fitness room (treadmill and arc trainer convey) or additional sleeping space for kids, grandkids and other guests. A full bath, multiple storage rooms, and walk-out access to the backyard complete the lower level. Outdoor living is central to this home, with private views from every window and thoughtfully designed spaces to enjoy the natural surroundings. The oversized 3-car garage includes a built-in dog shower and ample room for storage cabinetry.
