The perfect combination of town and place! This spacious estate speaks volumes in presence and proximity to everything UNC and Chapel Hill. Just a short drive from the hospital, campus and downtown. Gracefully positioned atop more than an acre of lush, private grounds, the property delivers a serene retreat that is equal parts luxury and comfort. With 4,000 square feet of finished living space PLUS over 1,400 square feet of unfinished daylight basement, there is extraordinary flexibility for grand entertaining, relaxed daily living, multi-generational space and work from home options. The elegant foyer welcomes you, flanked by formal dining and living rooms, perfect for parties or quiet enjoyment. An expansive family room starts the heart of the home, flowing seamlessly into the bright, modern kitchen, complete with breakfast area, sitting room, and an inviting screened porch overlooking tranquil, year-round forest views. The connection between indoor and outdoor living is effortless, with beautifully curated landscaping extending living into the backyard sanctuary. The classic slate patio is anchored by a stacked-stone fireplace crafted for outdoor dining and fireside evenings only made better by the hot tub to complete the backyard resort! Sophistication and luxury define this exceptional home, inside and out. True comfort continues on the second story; with three generously sized bedrooms plus a bonus room and the impressive third-floor suite offers ideal accommodations for teens, guests and more. The unfinished daylight basement is equally compelling, featuring soaring ceilings, multiple walls of windows, rough plumbing, and a separate exterior entrance. Whether envisioned as a rec lounge with wine cellar & golf simulator or fitness studio, workshop, or private in-law suite, the possibilities are truly limitless. Warm yet stately, expansive yet inviting, this remarkable property embodies the essence of luxury Piedmont living, minutes from every convenience. Within highly regarded Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools district and notably free from city taxes. A rare opportunity where privacy, sophistication, and convenience converge! OPEN HOUSES Saturday May 30th 1 PM to 3 PM and Sunday May 31st 1 PM to 3 PM are a great chance for folks to get to see this lovely home!
