Property Description

Stunning Tudor-style custom home in the highly desirable Portofino--one of Johnston County's premier gated equestrian communities. Perfectly positioned on a nearly one-acre corner lot, this thoughtfully designed residence lives like a five-bedroom (septic serves four bedrooms), four full baths, a bonus room, flex space, and a three-car side-load garage. An additional staircase leads to over 800 square feet of unfinished upstairs space, offering incredible potential for future expansion. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the outdoor retreat includes a Paverstone patio with a brick fireplace and stone bench wall--ideal for gathering with family and friends. The covered porch is enhanced with phantom screens, a stained wood ceiling, and a stone floor for year-round enjoyment. Inside, the gourmet kitchen shines with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large center island, two farmhouse sinks, and high-end Z-Line and KitchenAid appliances. A spacious scullery provides extra storage, cabinetry, and a second dishwasher--perfect for hosting. The home also features a well-equipped laundry room complete with a built-in dog wash. Hardwood floors flow throughout, complemented by plantation shutters and carefully curated finishes. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with a stained wood tray ceiling, paneled accent wall, and a barn door leading to a spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, marble tile floors, and an oversized walk-in shower designed for two. Upstairs, three bedrooms each include their own dedicated study nook--ideal for modern living. Residents of Portofino enjoy an exceptional lifestyle with over seven miles of scenic trails, a fishing pond, two resort-style pools, and elegant clubhouses--truly a one-of-a-kind community.
