About this home
The views alone are worth the visit. Perched at one of the highest elevations in Governors Club, this standout estate captures long-range views stretching toward Jordan Lake, a setting rarely found in the Triangle. Walls of windows throughout the main living spaces perfectly frame the breathtaking scenery from nearly every angle, flooding the home with natural light from morning to evening. With 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, the layout gives everyone room to breathe, whether you need a dedicated work-from-home setup that stays tucked away from everyday living, space for extended family, or a flex room to make entirely your own. The current media room with its adjacent entertaining bar is a natural fit for a home theater, a game room, or your ideal gathering space. And the finished walkout basement takes flexibility even further; complete with a kitchenette and generous living space, it's ready for multigenerational living, extended guest stays, or whatever vision you bring to it; a golf simulator, a private fitness center, a creative studio. The canvas is yours! The big-ticket items are already done for peace of mind: a newer roof (2024), updated HVAC systems (2026), and fresh interior and exterior paint. Additional highlights make everyday life seamless and smart: a 5-zone irrigation system, a thoughtfully planted garden featuring roses, gardenias and peonies and enjoy east-facing windows that frame glorious sunrise views year-round. Located within Governors Club, home to the Jack Nicklaus 27-Hole Signature Series Golf Course and the Triangle's only gated golf community with 24-hour staffed security. A setting this special is rare to find and impossible to fully capture through photos alone.
