On the Edge, and in the Middle…

In Holly Springs you get all of the convenience of the big city, with the warmth and security of well designed, planned neighborhoods that foster a strong sense of community. And, with consistent national accolades in business and lifestyle magazines, it’s no wonder that this area has been growing rapidly. Holly Springs offers fantastic local amenities and events – you’re making an excellent investment by considering a move to this beautiful part of the Triangle area.

With newer shopping destinations like Holly Springs Crossing and Holly Springs Towne Center, as well as recreational destinations like 12 Oaks Country Club and Devils Ridge Golf Club, W.E. Hunt Recreation Center, Jones Park, and Veterans Park, this area provides for a fantastic lifestyle. Along with the every-day shopping and service options right around the corner, Brackenridge is within minutes of the airport, and only a short commute to all of the employment centers in the Triangle. Also, because Holly Springs is experiencing a solid growth trajectory, public infrastructure is continuing to improve and expand. Development is springing up everywhere, and home values are on a growth trend as well.

One of the most attractive subdivisions in Holly Springs is located just off of Sunset Lake Road. Brackenridge was developed as a showcase for modern estate living. With shady streets that wind through gently rolling topography, Brackenridge is a lovely place to call home. Brackenridge boasts low annual fees, which go toward beautifying the well manicured common areas, and the HOA is committed to maintaining the highest property values.

Just past Sunset Lake and a couple of quick left turns into the tree-lined entry, you will be proud to welcome your guests to 205 Settlecroft Lane…

For the first time since 2004, this beautiful brick home built by Crown Builders is being offered for sale. The curb appeal of the home is absolutely gorgeous, with carefully manicured mature landscaping and integrated hardscape features. Wrought iron rails flank the inviting east facing porch, which leads into a grand foyer. The coffered ceiling in the two-story entry establishes a gracious tone and highlights the extraordinary detailing throughout. Everywhere you look, there are gleaming hardwoods, stately custom millwork, and unique finishes. To the right there is a formal living space, replete with a cedar plank vaulted ceiling and tall wainscoting that wraps around the sunny bay windows. To the left, there is an incredible formal dining room that features a unique lighted trey ceiling.

Proceeding under a wide bridge into the living spaces of the home, the soaring ceilings of the family room highlight the comfortable intimacy of a warm fire – huge windows flank a beautiful gas fireplace. The spectacular kitchen is open to this space as well, and flows into a similarly cozy breakfast room. The kitchen is decked out for the entertainer, with double ovens, a five-burner gas cooktop, microwave, double dishwashers, and a wine fridge. Custom maple casework abounds and the under-cabinet lighting shows off the tile backsplash and acres of granite.

This home features both a first floor guest suite, large enough for long-term guests, as well as a first floor master suite. The space features a lit double-trey ceiling, and is truly an owners retreat. There is decadent closet space and the master bath is dreamy. With separate vanities, large jetted tub, glassed shower, and even a trey ceiling, you will find it easy to relax and unwind in this space.

Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms and a large bonus room served by two jack-and-jill bathrooms. These spaces are comfortable and spacious, private and sunny.

The outdoor living spaces of this home do not disappoint. A pergola highlights the outdoor kitchen and deck, and a large gas firepit is tucked into a cozy corner. And then there is the pool…wow. This backyard is a true oasis.

There are numerous special features of this home that cannot be listed in this short introduction to the home. From all of the non-sexy systems upgrades to the fine craftsmanship, this home has been meticulously maintained. It is difficult to fully understand the unique attractive features of this home. And while we have provided many additional pictures, virtual tour, and other details on our website, it’s really best just to experience it in person.

We’d be happy to give you a personal tour!
