There’s something special about living on a golf course. From the smell of fresh-cut grass in the morning, to that quick nine or 18 holes after work, living and breathing the game is virtually every golfer’s dream. Welcome to the Signature Golf Course Estate where your dream of living on a golf course can come true at a very special price!

The long winding entrance to this majestic estate property creates expectancy in even the most worldly of travelers.  Situated on a level 1.7 acre lot, the estate has a commanding view of the fairway on the 13th signature hole of this Jack Nicklaus designed course, showcasing the beauty of the Governors Club community with stunning views at every turn.  

Natural stone hallmarks the path to the front door.  The exterior entry is accented by glass which encourages and enhances the play of natural light. An open foyer lures you into the living room/library that highlights
built-in book cases from floor to ceiling. Magnificent twin arched windows allow the fabulous view of the course to completely seduce even the most seasoned player.  The family room features high ceilings and a marble surround fireplace with an impressive mantle. Enjoy the cool of North Carolina autumns and the nip in the air of winter evenings in front of a hearty fire. Right outside the family room is a stone patio, a perfect venue for entertaining and a natural vantage point to watch golfers test their skills.

Hardwoods can be found throughout key areas of the home with quality craftsmanship evident in every room highlighted with crown molding and custom treatments.  A highly sought after main floor master suite is complimented by spacious closets and built-in cabinetry.  A private screened porch offers a quiet retreat for morning coffee or evening sunsets.  The second floor features two spacious guest rooms that share a hall bath.  The second floor master suite with full private bath allows maximum flexibility in arranging the living space for extended family members or au pairs.  A new HVAC system was installed in 2001 and it features 6 zones for maximum comfort, control and efficiency.

The basement is partially finished with several rooms that are fitted with air conditioning and electric baseboard heating.  There’s plenty of room for an additional office, exercise room, hobby room or studio or perhaps a wine cellar would be the perfect addition in this climate controlled area.

The backyard is heavily wooded providing plenty of privacy yet a great vantage point for watching golfers on the fairway.  An invisible fence surrounds the entire perimeter of the property and a matching dog collar conveys with the property.  Two sprinkler systems keep the landscaping in top condition.

This home has been loved and appreciated every day.  And it can be yours on November 5th!
