Overview

Discover serenity in this beautiful contemporary home, nestled above the street on a lovingly landscaped lot. Enjoy soaring ceilings, rich oak and heart of pine flooring, and hand hewn window trim. Updated and abundant windows & sliders bring the outdoors in. Relish the stunning addition designed by renowned architect Giles Blunden and built by Kurt Mueller of New Vista Construction. This gorgeous space includes a family room and a spacious room adjoining the primary bedroom, complete with a vaulted bead board ceiling and a picturesque circular window framing the lush wooded surroundings. Plus second floor bonus/loft. All new interior paint throughout, both walls and ceilings. Outside, the oversized lot beckons with its private oasis of lush greenery and carefully cultivated landscaping. Meandering walking paths invite exploration, while a screened porch and gazebo with patio provide perfect spots for alfresco dining and unwinding. The lovely pond is ready to welcome a school of koi fish. Additional highlights include a rejuvenating hot tub and on-site built storage shed. Walk to Lake Ellen and nearby trails, and be just moments from the free bus line, too. A gorgeous property in the heart of Chapel Hill.
