    What's special

    High-end finishesNewly constructed deckEnduring craftsmanshipWide-plank flooringModern architectureRichly textured tileworkKitchen anchors the home
    This completely renovated Carrboro home blends modern architecture with enduring craftsmanship, where thoughtful design and high-end finishes shape every space. Inside, the design immediately stands apart. A sequence of soft archways creates flow and visual rhythm, guiding you from the entry into the main living spaces. Natural light fills the open layout, highlighting wide-plank flooring and a cohesive, curated palette. The kitchen anchors the home with moody sage cabinetry, a sculptural wood vent hood, and richly textured tilework that adds depth and character. Open shelving and integrated details balance form and function, while the layout connects seamlessly to dining and living areas for everyday ease. A true standout, the bar nook and pantry offer exceptional storage with built-in organizational systems rarely found at this scale--both practical and beautifully executed. Throughout the home, custom lighting elevates each space, from statement fixtures to carefully placed ambient lighting that enhances the architecture. Bathrooms continue the design story with distinctive tile selections, clean-lined fixtures, and warm wood accents that bring a spa-like feel. Bedroom closets include upgraded storage and modern sliding doors that complement the home's aesthetic. Outdoor spaces extend the living experience with a newly constructed deck and large backyard, framed by mature trees for a sense of privacy and connection to the natural surroundings. Just a mile from downtown, the location keeps Carrboro's energy close at hand--near Lanza's, the farmer's market, Weaver Street, Cat's Cradle, local cafés, and nearby trails. A rare opportunity to own a fully reimagined home where architecture, materials, and location come together--modern design in the heart of Carrboro's vibrant community. Possible to build ~500 SF ADU (ask for more info/plan options if buyer is interested)
