The living and dining rooms, just off the foyer, are bathed in natural light throughout the day.

And as the sun sets, things quiet and the spaces become cozy enclaves to enjoy with friends and family. The kitchen seamlessly connects to a breakfast nook and a spacious laundry room with built-ins for pantry space. But the highlight is the delightful screened sitting porch, just off the kitchen—an idyllic spot to sip your morning coffee and unwind in peaceful solitude. Off the kitchen, you'll discover a den - lined with windows providing views to a beautiful backyard- that has built-in shelves and a fireplace, along with a convenient vestibule entry from the side of the house, adding ease and practicality to everyday living. The upper-level gallery- is truly a gallery. It adds an open, airy feel, while the home's architectural details—such as heart-of-pine floors and timeless moldings, showcase its character. Upstairs you'll find four spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths. The owner's suite boasts a sunporch off the back offering a great spot to enjoy the surrounding mature landscaping and tranquil views. With its beautiful homesite, mature trees, and unique charm, this property is ready for someone to lovingly usher it into its next 100 years. It's a rare gem waiting to be cherished, restored, and transformed—offering an unparalleled opportunity to live in the heart of Chapel Hill's history while enjoying all the conveniences of modern life.

That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
