Triangle MLS (TMLS)
Property Description
Seller is offering $5,000 toward buyer closing costs with an acceptable offer! Welcome to 8306 Polaris Drive, where peaceful country living, nearly an acre of usable land, and easy access to Durham come together in a home that offers something increasingly difficult to find. Tucked into a quiet Bahama neighborhood, this inviting ranch gives you the space and privacy of a rural setting without feeling disconnected from the conveniences of the Triangle. At the heart of the home is the spacious, light-filled sunroom, a truly special living space overlooking the backyard and offering the perfect setting for morning coffee, family gatherings, entertaining friends, or simply unwinding at the end of the day. Step outside and you'll find a flat, nearly one-acre lot with plenty of room to garden, play, entertain, create additional outdoor living areas, or simply enjoy having space between you and your neighbors...all with no HOA! The sellers have invested extensively in making the home ready for its next chapter, including a new septic system, fresh interior paint, updated fixtures, refreshed bathrooms, and a new front patio. Inside, you'll also appreciate generous storage, large pantries, comfortable living spaces, and a layout that offers both character and flexibility. 8306 Polaris Drive delivers the lifestyle so many buyers are searching for: more land, more privacy, a peaceful setting, and room to breathe while remaining convenient to Durham. If you've been compromising between being close to the city and having the space you really want, this may be the home that lets you have both. Come experience the sunroom, walk the backyard, and see for yourself why this property deserves a closer look.
