Experience the modernist design in this Arthur Cogswell-designed home, ideally situated on 3.6 private, wooded acres in the East CHHS District with the benefit of county taxes. Tucked away on a quiet Chapel Hill street, this signature mid-century architectural residence offers privacy, character, and timeless style—ready for you to make it your new home. The kitchen framed by large windows overlooking the garden, opens to the dining and family rooms. In the spacious family room, a vaulted ceiling, soft indirect light from clerestory windows, a wood-burning fireplace, and a corner window create a warm and inviting place to read, relax, or gather. Expansive windows connect the home to the surrounding forest, while distinctive Cogswell details—including the loft and balcony overlooking the living room—add architectural interest and a playful sense of space. For entertaining or quiet evenings, the family room extends naturally to the screened porch. The versatile three-bedroom, three-bath layout spans multiple levels, offering plenty of room to spread out and enjoy distinct living areas. Outdoor spaces include a lower-level deck and a stone patio with a dedicated garden area protected by a seven-foot deer fence. Two one-car garages provide ample storage, complimented by a separate skylit room and a sunny workspace just outside the back door—offering a place for every hobby, project, or pursuit. With a peaceful "miles away" feeling in the heart of everything, this special property delivers a rare blend of secluded living just minutes from UNC, Duke, and I-40.
