Welcome to your dream home in Chapel Hill! Just six minutes from downtown Carrboro, this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home offers open-concept contemporary style living, combined with rural tranquility on nearly an acre lot. The high-end modern kitchen includes custom soft-close cabinetry, black stainless-steel appliances, granite counters, a touch-faucet, and a beautiful pantry. New sliding glass doors along the back side of the home encourage indoor/outdoor living, offering a view of the wide back deck and well-maintained lawn and gardens. Pop out to the fully wired shed to complete any DIY projects. Enjoy the luxurious primary suite, complete with a renovated walk-in-closet and bathroom. Both secondary bedrooms are spacious and well-appointed with walk-in closets, and the laundry room is full of built-in storage. Major systems have all been updated including a new roof (2016), HVAC (2019), Water Heater (2019), and Well-Pump (2020). This property is districted for Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools, but falls outside of city limits, and is therefore subject to lower taxes - a win-win.
