Property Description

• • • OVERVIEW • • • Welcome to 203 Musket Lane, a beautifully updated 6-bedroom, 3-bath home with 3,159 square feet of living space on a 0.53-acre lot, one of the largest in The Colony at American Village. Tucked into a quiet interior double cul-de-sac with no through traffic, the property offers space and privacy, including a partly wooded backyard with a mature forest grove. Duke Forest is directly adjacent, with Duke University minutes away and an easy commute to UNC-Chapel Hill. • • • INTERIOR • • • Hardwood floors, high ceilings, crown molding, updated lighting, and abundant natural light create a bright, welcoming interior. The spacious family room with gas-log fireplace opens to the kitchen and breakfast area, featuring granite countertops, center island, stainless appliances, gas cooking, pantry storage, and double ovens, including one convection oven. A separate dining room provides additional entertaining space. • • • FLOOR PLAN • • • The flexible floor plan includes five bedrooms upstairs and a separate bonus room, plus a first-floor bedroom with walk-in closet that can function as an office, playroom, game room, or gym. The primary suite features a vaulted ceiling, large walk-in closet, dual vanity, soaking tub, and updated bath with new tile and frameless glass shower. • • • UPDATES • • • Major improvements include kitchen cabinetry and all three bathrooms refinished in 2018; new roof and deck flooring in 2020; HVAC systems replaced in 2020 and 2022; original main-level hardwood floors refinished in 2022, with new hardwood added that year in the first-floor sixth bedroom and throughout the second level; new primary bath tile and shower in 2022; new washing machine in 2023; new dishwasher in 2025; and new stair carpet, front porch railing, and deck railings in 2026. • • • OUTDOOR LIVING • • • The fenced backyard includes a secluded grove of mature hardwood trees, a well-maintained deck with abundant natural shade, a seasonal canopy for additional late-afternoon shade, and a natural-gas grill hookup. A professionally installed Gorilla Empire Extreme playset offers three play levels, three slides, monkey bars, swings, climbing features, and a bridge and tower. The playset was custom painted to coordinate with the house and deck, with roof shingles matching the home's roof. The covered front porch adds another inviting outdoor space. • • • OUTDOOR LIVING • • • The fenced backyard is a standout feature, with mature landscaping, substantial open space, and a secluded grove of mature hardwood trees providing unusual privacy. The deck receives abundant natural shade, with an easily removable seasonal canopy for additional late-afternoon shade and a natural-gas grill hookup. A professionally installed Gorilla Empire Extreme playset features three elevated play levels, three slides, monkey bars, swings, climbing features, and a bridge and tower. Installed in 2021, it was custom painted and shingled to coordinate with the house. The covered front porch provides another inviting outdoor space. • • • PARKING & STORAGE • • • Parking and storage are unusually generous, with an attached 2-car garage offering extensive lofted storage plus three independent paved outdoor parking spaces, including a side parking pad. Inside are four walk-in closets plus additional closets, a pull-down attic, and large backyard shed. Garage entry is directly adjacent to the kitchen for easy grocery unloading and access to additional refrigerator or freezer storage. A dedicated main-level laundry room off the kitchen provides overflow storage for countertop appliances, pantry items, and household supplies. • • • LOCATION • • • The neighborhood is adjacent to Duke Forest with miles of scenic trails. American Village Park, connected by an off-street pedestrian nature path, is scheduled for a city-planned playground renovation beginning October 2026. • • • INSPECTION • • • A September 2026 pre-listing home inspection is available for review.
