The Estate is a 4200 square foot, three story, custom home on nearly six acres of prime real estate that can comfortably sleep up to 14 people. Furnished to create an atmosphere of a French Country Horse Farm, you’ll feel the sensation of being transported away from the everyday the very moment you arrive. In addition to the sleeping accommodations, The Estate offers a modern dine in kitchen, a cozy formal dining room, a family room, a bonus room, and a large screened in porch offering breathtaking views of the property. Relaxation and comfort are the theme at the Estate, so whether you have chosen to get away with the family or with a group a friends, the amenities at the Estate were designed with you in mind. Sit out on the porch or patio and take in the beauty of nature surrounded by tall pine and birch trees and a veritable aviary of wild birds that soar above Nimich Pond. Or get up close and personal with the pond on our dock, while enjoying the tranquil sound of splashing water emitting from the in pond fountain. Looking for a little more? How about a cool dip in the new inground private salt water swimming pool, or explore the various planting beds, or the walking trails, or get your short game in order on our personal putting green or spend time with the young ones on the jungle gym swing set. Even though you will feel as though you are far away from everything, in reality you are merely a stone’s throw from everything. Downtown Raleigh and Downtown Durham are both just twenty five minutes away; so whether you are visiting to attend a Wolfpack or Blue Devil game, or see a show at the Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC), the Estate places you right in the middle of these and other central Carolina event venues.

The pool was lovely and the towel caddy was a nice touch. All of the outdoor seating, including the pond-side deck was great and the numerous beds were much appreciated for everyone. And the putting green out back and all of the games in the barn were a fantastic finishing touch. Would definitely return on our next trip to Raleigh! Thank you to Maurice and Melissa for making our stay wonderful! ##### Kevon T. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deborah M.

Just wish there was an area where we could all have sat together at dinner, so we ate in shifts. All the amenities were great. Hosts were nice and helpful. ##### Deborah M.

We were able to spend quality time with our adult children and grandchildren. The owners thought of everything! The pool was amazing! There were lots of games and activities as well. Will definitely book again. Memories were made! ##### Elizabeth B.

We rented The Estate@Nimich Pond for family coming for our daughter's wedding. The accommodations and plentiful on-site activities were awesome. The owners are amazing; their love for the property and their desire to make sure guests are happy and comfortable are beyond measure. We wouldn't hesitate to rent again. ##### Cheryl C.

There was plenty to see and do. My group did not spend as much time on the property due to attending a music festival. However, Maurice and Melissa were excellent hosts. Everything was as described and we can’t wait to visit again! ##### Keanna J. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juwan S.

The house is amazing with many spacious and comfortable rooms to fit all of my family comfortably as well as a fabolous enclosed patio and we loved every bit of the place. The pool was definitely a plus for keeping us nice and cool during the hot summer days and the barnhouse is filled with many games and entertainment for all of my family to enjoy! To top it off, Melissa & Maurice were outstanding hosts, willing and able to assist us if ever needed and did everything in their power to provide a lovely stay for us. Most definitely would stay here again without a doubt! ##### Juwan S. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### steven m.

This home has been meticulously well kept and had everything you could ever imagine in a get-away. We loved every bit of our stay. From the beautiful, spacious home home with keen attention to detail, to the outdoor oasis for much needed rest and relaxation. If 10 stars could be given, I’d strive for 11. This place was great and I look forward to another stay in the future. ##### steven m.
