Award-Winning 3BR/3BA Custom Home with Sunroom and Patio
Step into a sunroom that feels more like a crafted living space than an addition—the herringbone brick floor and warm wood ceiling set the tone for a home designed with intention. 2311 Timberview Drive is a Gold Parade of Homes winner: a custom-built residence (2021) with 3,623 square feet of thoughtfully detailed living space on a level 0.21-acre lot in Croasdaile Farm.
The house presents site-finished hardwood floors throughout main living areas, an artisan fireplace surround anchoring the family room, and a gourmet kitchen appointed with custom cabinetry and quartz countertops—perfect for everyday meals and entertaining. The primary suite offers private access to a brick patio for coffee or evening wind-downs; two additional bedrooms and three full baths complete a layout built for both privacy and connection.
Built with modern systems and low near-term maintenance needs, this home includes central AC, forced-air gas heating, an architectural shingle roof, and an attached two-car garage. The design balances classic materials with contemporary detailing—brick, wood, and stone accents paired with clean cabinetry lines and durable quartz work surfaces.
Location is central to the property’s appeal. Croasdaile Country Club sits a half-mile away; Duke University and Duke University Hospital are within about 2.5–2.7 miles, and Sarah P. Duke Gardens and local shopping at Northgate Mall are short drives. Buyers seeking proximity to Duke-affiliated employers, access to private country-club amenities, and a prestigious neighborhood address will find this residence compelling.
From a valuation perspective, recent market analysis places fair value between $1.2M–$1.3M (midpoint $1.25M), supported by local comps and a 2024 assessed value of $1,132,275. With award-winning design, high-end finishes, and a prime Croasdaile Farm location, 2311 Timberview Drive represents a rare combination of immediate move-in readiness and long-term desirability.

A factual market snapshot around 2311 Timberview Dr.
Croasdaile Farm currently sits in a balanced-to-slightly seller-leaning market. Inventory is constrained at roughly 2.5 months—below a neutral threshold—while properties in the neighborhood typically spend about 45 days on market before closing. Median sale price for the area is near $950,000, but custom homes with trophy finishes, like this Gold Parade winner, command premiums; a sales-comparison approach yields an estimated value between $1.2M and $1.3M. Year-over-year appreciation is modest (~5% over 12 months) and five-year appreciation is healthy (~25%), reflecting steady demand driven by proximity to Duke University and local amenities. For sellers, current low inventory and steady buyer interest from professionals and executives make this an opportunistic time to list. For buyers, limited supply means well-priced, move-in-ready homes in Croasdaile Farm can receive multiple showings quickly—buyers should be prepared with financing or proof of funds. Rental comps are strong as well, with recent three-bedroom leases in the neighborhood fetching around $3,800–$4,000 monthly, signaling robust demand for high-quality rental alternatives. Overall, this is a market where quality and location outperform, and timing matters.
