GOVERNORS CLUB ESTATE | MAIN-LEVEL LIVING | PRIVATE POOL Freshly renovated main living spaces, a main-level primary suite, and a private backyard pool, this is the kind of Governors Club home buyers wait for. Spanning three finished levels, the home has the scale you expect from a custom estate, but it still feels comfortable, inviting, and easy to live in. The recently renovated kitchen and main living area set the tone from the moment you walk in. High-end appliances, generous cabinetry, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and beautifully refinished hardwood floors create a bright, open feel throughout. The kitchen flows naturally into the living spaces, while additional rooms on the main level give you the flexibility to create spaces that work for the way you live. There's room to gather, entertain, work, unwind, or simply change things up as your needs do. One of the home's biggest advantages is the primary suite on the main floor. Tucked away for privacy, it includes its own sitting area, spa-style bath, dual vanities, walk-in closet, and a dedicated laundry room nearby. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and a spacious bonus room provide plenty of room to spread out, along with a second laundry room. The finished lower level adds another entire floor of flexible living space, giving you even more options to make the home your own. And then there's the backyard. The private pool is surrounded by natural stone, mature landscaping, and a garden arch that gives the entire space a tucked-away feel. A covered patio and outdoor fireplace create a true outdoor living area, while a dedicated pool room and changing area mean wet feet never have to make their way through the house. It's a backyard designed for summer afternoons, evenings by the fire, and weekends when there's no reason to leave home. All of this sits inside Governors Club, the Triangle's only 24-hour gated golf community, built around a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Course. With UNC, Duke, and RDU within easy reach, this all-brick custom home brings together something that's increasingly hard to find: updated main-level living, substantial space, flexibility, and a private pool, all in one of the Triangle's most established golf communities.
