The Ridge at Highview Acres

This special, country homestead in the Durham hills has raised a family, trained many horses and entertained many friends over the past 35 years.

The stunning home is a Frank Lloyd Wright design that fits into its natural surrounding and is similar to his popular “prairie” style. It is bright, spacious and open with many windows, skylights, and redwood that make you feel like your outdoors, while inside.

The main floor includes an enormous living room, cozy family room with a raised-hearth fireplace and “tree house” views, library/office, and formal dining room. The private Master Suite is on its own floor with a sitting area, fireplace, window seats, redwood ceilings, two walk-in closets and its own, new, full bath. It also has a separate outside entrance. The well-built house is over “engineered” with two 100 amp services, AC/DC current, gas generator, 2x10 and 2x8 joists, and 6-heating zones.

The 10-stall, equine facilities are first rate for a perfect “hobby” horse farm or a serious training/lessons facility. It even has a uniquely designed 5,800 sq’ riding arena that is bright, airy and cool in the summer, warm in the winter -- and is lit with special S.A.D. lights. The adjoining barn has its own hot/cold water wash stall, electrical svc, large grain & tack rooms, and holds 10 tons of hay. There are several paddock turnouts, a large pasture, and direct access to many nearby riding trails.

The landscaped property immediately surrounding the house boasts perennial gardens, a marvelous lap pool, mature perennial gardens, large decks, and a stonewalled patio. The surrounding woods are protected from future building. This is a special property for the discerning buyer.
