Why they chose this property

We had been looking in Leiper's Fork for over year before finding Lyric! We fell in love with the winding roads leading to it and the secluded feel of the property immediately. Once we saw the balcony running along the back of the home, we knew it was "the one." Inside, the floorplan was conducive to so many possibilities - multiple living spaces, bedrooms each with en suite bathrooms, two nooks but needed some love. We spent several months remodeling the interior of the home and designing the space for guests.
