About this home
Nestled within the exclusive gated enclave of The Hills of Rosemont, this residence, meticulously designed by William Hirsch in the spirit of Second Empire period architecture, offers a rare balance of privacy, scale, and accessibility in one of the Triangle's most sought-after settings. Just minutes from RDU Airport, Research Triangle Park, Highway 540, and Jordan Lake, the location provides exceptional convenience while maintaining a quiet sense of retreat. Positioned at the end of a cul de sac, the home rests on a wooded, thoughtfully landscaped 6+ acre lot that enhances both seclusion and presence. From arrival, the setting feels composed and intentional, with mature plantings, curated gardens, and layered outdoor rooms that frame the architecture in a natural, enduring backdrop. A welcoming front porch introduces the residence with understated elegance, offering a graceful threshold into a home designed for both gathering and retreat. Interior and exterior spaces connect seamlessly, shaped by a cohesive landscape vision by Sears Design Group. The gourmet kitchen anchors the main level, appointed with a substantial chopping block island, double ovens, generous prep surfaces, and a spacious corner pantry with all appliances conveying. An eat in dining area and adjoining keeping room with fireplace create an inviting sense of warmth. Just beyond, a screened morning porch extends the kitchen experience outdoors, offering an intimate setting for coffee or casual dining while overlooking a fenced rose garden courtyard. The formal dining room, illuminated by a statement chandelier and refined sconces, is seamlessly connected to the kitchen through both a dry butler's pantry and a dedicated china pantry, allowing for elegant entertaining while maintaining separation between preparation and presentation. The main level is defined by dual suite living. The primary suite includes a private sitting room that opens to a pergola covered porch overlooking a curated fountain garden, creating a secluded outdoor extension of the suite. A first floor guest suite offers exceptional privacy and independence, complete with its own exterior entrance, well suited for extended stays or multigenerational living. Throughout the main level, rich hardwood floors, custom millwork by Thompson Woodwork & Stephenson Millwork, and refined lighting design establish a consistent language of craftsmanship and detail. A formal library with custom built ins provides a contemplative workspace, while a separate office and mail room near the kitchen adds practical functionality without interrupting the home's overall composition. The three car garage connects through a highly organized entry with abundant storage, and the main level laundry room is designed with generous scale and exceptional cabinetry for everyday ease. The sunroom serves as a luminous transition between interior and exterior living, defined by dramatic skylights and a steady influx of natural light. It opens directly to the rear veranda, extending the living experience outward to an outdoor kitchen and gathering space oriented toward the grounds. Beyond, broad lawn areas unfold with layered garden views and provide the scale for a future private pool, all enhanced by landscape lighting that traces paths, trees, and architectural lines in a soft evening glow. A sculptural staircase leads to the upper level, where two spacious bedrooms each include private en suite baths. This level also features flexible bonus spaces suited for media, fitness, recreation, or studio use, including a dedicated dark room for photography. Extensive unfinished living areas offer a meaningful opportunity for future expansion or personalization. This property has a rare sense of depth and separation while remaining moments from the center of the Triangle. Residents also enjoy direct access an extensive trail system for walking, hiking, and biking via the American Tobacco Trail....
