Welcome to 711 Hardscrabble Drive — where everyday feels a little more spacious. This 3,123-square-foot home delivers four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and a versatile bonus room within an award-winning floor plan. Natural light pours through oversized rooms, and storage is nowhere in short supply — all set on a private, one-acre lot tucked into the trees. Start and end your day on the screened porch, where the surrounding woods turn morning coffee and evening wind-down into something closer to a retreat than a routine. Inside, 10-foot ceilings and hardwood floors set the tone, while a bay-windowed dining room adds a graceful spot for gathering. Fresh paint, new carpet, updated lighting, a renovated downstairs bath, and an encapsulated crawl space mean the big-ticket updates are already done. The kitchen holds its own with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, a wall oven, and a sunny breakfast nook framed by its own bay window. All of this sits inside Hardscrabble Plantation, one of the area's most sought-after communities — home to a swimming pool, four clay tennis courts, two asphalt tennis/pickleball courts, a clubhouse, walking trails, a playground, and a year-round fishing pond. It's a rare kind of quiet — minutes from the pull of Durham, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh, but a world away from their pace. Please remove shoes when viewing. Washer and Dryer convey as well as the TV in family room. The french doors including the door frame leading onto the deck are scheduled to be replaced 8/6. Pleased contact Anna Jones (919)280-6200
