    What's special

    Nestled in the coveted Chapel Hill School District with the advantage of lower Orange County taxes, this period-authentic ''Carolina Farm House'' combines charm with modern conveniences. Built in 1992, the home features 9ft ceilings, gas range, wired workshop, dual-zone HVAC, garage w/ EV wiring, new roof, newer appliances, and a generator backup. Originally a custom builder's personal residence, this spacious, quality-built home is set on nearly an acre in the desirable Mel Oaks neighborhood, offering a generous backyard, quiet cul-de-sac streets, and minimal traffic. Period details abound, including cedar shake accents, porch brackets and louvers, 5-panel solid wood doors, and vintage light fixtures. The full-length deep front porch with a tongue & groove ceiling, rocking chairs, and swing invites relaxation, while the large screened porch in the back is perfect for entertaining & dining. Additional features include beautiful trim details, a wood-burning fireplace, cozy library with bookshelves, koi pond, fenced garden, and a sizable bonus room. The walkup attic offers ample storage or the potential for additional living space. Conveniently located near downtown Chapel Hill, Carrboro, UNC, and minutes from shopping and swim/tennis clubs, this home offers both seclusion and accessibility.
