Walk to UNC's campus from this energy-efficient tree house nestled on a half an acre in a quiet cul-de-sac. The inviting front patio leads you into the open concept living area with soaring, lofted ceilings backing to a beautiful hardwood landscape. Patio doors across the back of the house access the stunning wraparound porch for outdoor dining and gathering. A private library shares a double-sided, gas fireplace with the living room. The main floor also boasts a primary suite with walk-in shower and air-jetted tub, a powder room, and a laundry room. Enjoy the second floor loft for quiet reading or office. Solar panels generate over 10 megawatt hours of power annually. A Powerwall runs the house seamlessly in a power outage. These, plus a new roof and EV charger were added in 2023. The over-sized 2-car garage has loads of storage. The garage opens to a full daylight basement /workshop and cedar closet. A 'dumb waiter' to the first floor makes bringing groceries upstairs easy. The interior garage door allows easy access for moving large projects. Take a look! The dramatic magic happens when you open the front door!
