    What's special

    Just 1 block from the UNC Chapel Hill campus and in the heart of the Cameron-McCauley Historic District, this colonial-revival home exudes historical character, charm, and offers an endless list of features. Covered porches welcome you on 3 sides and multiple dormers accent the clapboard-sided exterior. This 5 bedroom/3 bath home has a renovated interior and is currently configured as a 2-story single family residence with 2 attached rental apartments on the main floor (each apartment has 1 bedroom/1 bath). Remodeled kitchen and baths in the main house (done in 2016) including a gorgeous primary bath complete with tile floor, double vanity, stand-alone tub and shower. Hardwood floors throughout, true divided-light leaded glass windows, vintage moldings, trim, and door hardware compliment the historic features. A cozy office is perfect for private virtual meetings with built-in bookshelves and a desk of 200+ year-old wood. Outdoor entertaining is easy with ample parking, an oversized stone patio and firepit, as well as a tree house in the fenced rear yard. A 2-car detached garage makes a great workshop and offers a spacious storage attic. New roof ('25) and exterior paint ('25). Apartments provide great rental income to offset your mortgage or expenses! This is the perfect opportunity to live in the heart of town, and enjoy everything Chapel Hill has to offer!
