This gorgeous 5-bedroom home sits on a beautiful 0.98-acre lot, filled with mature hardwood trees, in the lovely Laurel Hill neighborhood. Dr. William C. Coker, the first Professor of Botany at Carolina, created Rocky Ridge Farm development (the second subdivision in Chapel Hill) from his own private farm. This home was one of the early ones built in Rocky Ridge – and although it has been updated throughout the years with wonderful conveniences such a huge gourmet kitchen, a first floor guest bedroom suite, a generator, and beautiful hardscapes on the grounds – the owners have maintained the historical charm of the property. Located on a private lot, this home is part of a neighborhood that is bordered by two exquisite Carolina gems: the UNC Outdoor Education Center and the Coker Pinetum. With just a short walk the campus, this home has it all! It is the best of Chapel Hill living!
