Beautifully renovated and tucked among tall Carolina pines, this two-story home in gated Seven Lakes North offers glimpses of the lake right from the back deck. A wide covered front porch and leaded-glass door open to an airy main level with new wood-look plank flooring, fresh neutral paint, white wainscoting, and crown molding. The living room centers on a fireplace with a classic white mantel and flows into a sunlit dining room with a plank ceiling and French doors to the backyard.The all-new kitchen is the showpiece: white shaker cabinets, quartz counters with a waterfall-edge peninsula, glossy tile backsplash, open wood shelving, brass hardware, a stainless range and hood, and a dishwasher. Just beyond, a large laundry and mudroom adds extra cabinetry, counter space, and a built-in beverage cooler. A full bath on the main level features a walk-in tiled shower with a rainfall showerhead and brushed-gold fixtures.Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms each have new carpet, a ceiling fan, and generous closet space. They share a designer hall bath with dual vessel sinks on a floating slatted-wood vanity, granite counters, and a freestanding soaking tub set against a striking tile wall.Out back, a deck and flagstone patio with pergola overlook nearly half an acre sloping toward the water. Life in Seven Lakes comes with a 24-hour staffed gate, seven recreational lakes for boating and swimming, a sandy lakeside beach, community pool, clubhouse, horse stables, sport courts, playground, and picnic pavilions. A golf club, racquet club, and fitness center are right in the community with separate memberships available, and Pinehurst's dining and shopping are a short drive away.
