Top Luxury Home Sales in the Triangle in 2011: Part I
The Triangle Business Journal recently published their list of the Top Residential Sales in 2011, but they missed two fabulous homes that sold for over $2 million: one in Chapel Hill and one in Rougemont, just north of Durham. I’m going to profile these homes today and tomorrow, beginning with this beautiful home in Conservation Ridge on Pickard Mountain, just west of Chapel Hill. This gorgeous estate was hand crafted with incredible stonework and would have made a fantastic retreat center.

This home has nine bedrooms including four in an adjacent guest house, and ten total bathrooms, with about 8900 square feet including the underground rock cave home theater and entertainment space. There is a salt water inground pool and just over 46 acres of beautiful hilltop property.
This property was originally listed in October of 2010 for $4,360,000 which according to the listing agent was several million dollars under what the property cost to build. It eventually closed in June 2011 for $2,710,000.
Tune in tomorrow for the next of the top luxury home sales in the Triangle.

It’s certainly gorgeous, even if the “Craftsman” style is only on the exterior. I’ve always wondered what people who have houses this size do with all that space. You’d have to throw a lot of BIG parties to use it all!
