HEARTSEASE, one of Hillsborough's most architecturally & historically distinctive homes, nestled on a glorious, private acre. Remarkably romantic & rambling dormered residence in the Federal style. A rare integration of historic presence & modern amenities.
;void(null))
The exterior back of the home reveals its true size and marvelous melding of trellised & open terraces as well as the recently added screened porch. Imagine Colonial Governor Burke and other families enjoying this special spot for over 200 years!

Intricate mouldings & arched doorways; rare, original heart pine & mahogany floors with historic finishes; high wood-paneled ceilings command attention & add character to the generously-sized living room.

Dine while imagining those who have dined before. Well-appointed with original restored beams & floors, the dining room is large enough to seat a crowd or host an intimate dinner party for the next door neighbors.

Currently a stunning guest bedroom, this room is part of a two story addition from the mid 1800s by the home's namesake, Dennis Heartt, the influential editor of the Hillsborough Recorder. It could also serve as a lovable main level master.

If you prefer to sleep in the stars, this upper level master is an elegant alternative.

One of the romantic gates beckoning you to enter HEARTSEASE'S beautiful and private grounds tucked away behind the stately yet subtly situated residence.

Recently added, the screened porch allows you to enjoy the gorgeous gardens even when the weather outside is frightful. Classic 'haint' color on the ceiling wards off spiders and nasty spirits~true Southern style.

An old and very rare allee of towering boxwoods was recovered, as were the early stones of the path beneath the arched limbs. The allee is thriving as a centerpiece of the inspired landscape.
