Franklinton, NC 27525Imagine finding a turnkey, custom round house on over 3 private acres with a rambling stream, a private road, gigabit Spectrum internet, and hardwired Ethernet. Tucked between Creedmoor and Franklinton, just 15 minutes from I-85 and an easy drive to Raleigh, Durham, and Wake Forest, this architecturally distinct property is a rare sanctuary for remote work, creative pursuits, or homesteading, with standout getaway or short-term rental potential. Step inside to a light-filled, open-concept layout anchored by warm structural wood beams and a cupola-style vaulted ceiling. Organic bamboo flooring flows to a galley kitchen with wood cabinetry and a flexible dining area, while expansive windows and the wrap-around deck offer 180-degree views of the wooded acreage. The main-floor primary suite features vaulted ceilings, generous closets, a soaking tub, a separate walk-in shower, and a connected flex room that can be customized as an office, studio, or library. The walk-out lower level adds two guest bedrooms, a full hall bath, radiant floor heating, and durable concrete and LVP flooring, with 3 additional distinct spaces. Each space has unlimited potential for a studio, workshop, lounge, or bonus room. Engineered in the round for natural strength and efficiency: 2x6 wall construction, LED lighting, tubular duct system, whole-house generator, Tesla EV charger, water softener, GAF architectural roof (approx. 5 yrs), and 5-ton Trane XL16 heat pump (approx. 6 yrs). Round homes rarely reach the Triangle market. If you have been searching for a sustainable, structurally unique modern homestead that offers absolute privacy and high-tech readiness, your search ends here.
