635 Cross Creek DriveHampstead, NC 28443Price: $629,900

Tucked away at the end of a quiet road in Hampstead, this peaceful country retreat offers the kind of privacy and quiet that's becoming harder and harder to find. Situated on 3.09 (option to purchase second parcel with an additional 2.9 acres) beautiful acres surrounded by trees and open sky, this property feels like a hidden sanctuary -- the kind of place where mornings begin slowly on the porch with coffee in hand and evenings end under the stars in complete stillness. Inside, the thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends warmth, comfort, and modern upgrades. The open floor plan features 9-foot ceilings, a spacious living area, and a welcoming kitchen with shiplap detail, butcher block island, stainless steel appliances, and adjoining dining space designed for gathering. New custom flooring runs throughout the home, adding a fresh and cohesive feel. The private owner's suite features a walk-in closet, and a beautifully renovated bathroom with double granite vanities, tile flooring, and a large glass walk-in shower. This home has been lovingly maintained with major upgrades including a new Trane HVAC system with updated ductwork, encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, and a top-of-the-line $14,000 custom Kinetico water filtration and reverse osmosis system providing exceptional water quality throughout the home. Outside, the property truly shines with raised garden beds, fenced growing areas, wooded surroundings, and plenty of room to breathe. The impressive 40x40 workshop with 100-amp electrical service, storage loft, work benches, and oversized bays offers endless possibilities for hobbies, projects, business use, or RV storage. For those wanting even more space and privacy, an additional adjoining 2.9-acre wooded parcel with trails is also available for purchase. This is more than just a home -- it's a slower, quieter way of living that feels worlds away while still being close to everything Hampstead has to offer.
