Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully appointed home that offers both charm and functionality, two miles from the campus and hospital of UNC-Chapel Hill, in an award-winning school district. The main level features a spacious study with a cozy fireplace and French doors, perfect for working or relaxing. The large eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream, with ample storage, a central island for barstools, granite countertops, a gas range, and a convenient bill-paying desk. The inviting family room boasts a wall of windows that frame the picturesque backyard, also accessible through French doors.
Adjacent to the kitchen, the formal dining room is ideal for entertaining family and friends. A tastefully decorated half-bath with direct access to the screened-in porch and pool area, along with an additional pantry and walk-in storage, complete the first floor.
Upstairs, you'll find wide hallways and gorgeous flooring throughout. Two bedrooms, each with beautifully renovated en-suite bathrooms, provide privacy and comfort. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat, offering a spa-like bathroom, custom walk-in closets, and a private owner's retreat with a fireplace, creating the perfect space to unwind. Additionally, a finished storage space adds extra convenience.
The third floor is a versatile space, featuring two spacious bedrooms or flex rooms, a full bathroom, and even more storage to meet all your needs.
Step into your own private oasis with a beautifully landscaped backyard that's as serene as it is stunning. Enjoy the luxury of a perfectly maintained pool featuring a newly refinished patio and pool liner—ideal for summer lounging or entertaining guests. This secluded retreat sits on 2.39 acres of mature hardwoods, backing to an additional 60 acres of untouched woods, offering unmatched privacy and natural beauty.
Gather around the large fire pit with plenty of kiln-dried wood on hand, perfect for cozy evenings under the stars. A separate, temperature-controlled studio/cottage adds versatility to the property—ideal for a home office, art studio or personal retreat.
