A large island anchors the space, making it the natural gathering spot for family breakfasts, dinner parties, or a casual glass of wine with friends. Whether you're hosting a crowd or perfecting a weeknight recipe, this kitchen inspires. Warm oak hardwood floors flow throughout, and on cool Carolina evenings, the wood stove sets the coziest of moods.

Need a quiet place to work from home? The versatile office/den has you covered. Step outside and enjoy everything the neighborhood has to offer -- stroll the charming tree-lined streets or head over to Rainbow Soccer fields for some fresh air and fun with your furry friend.

Seller has updated HVAC, encapsulated crawl space and added gutters, wood stove and more! Whether you're a UNC faculty member, a passionate home cook, a growing family, or a pet lover craving nature and convenience -- this Chapel Hill gem checks every box. Welcome home.
