    What's special

    Spring means light. Spring promises air and fresh beginnings... 908 Hillsborough delivers all of it. Lovely new hardscaping leads you down a bluestone path to the door of this modern Carrboro craftsman bursting with light filled spaces that transition seamlessly to joyful outdoor living. Soaring ceilings welcome you in, and add even more space to what is already a generous floor plan. Every step over the hardwoods guides you from one perfect space to the next. Each room with a purpose and no wasted square footage between. On the main level you'll find hardwood floors tying together a cozy, light-filled living room, a formal dining room, a chef's kitchen with a family room at the heart of it all. The built in bookshelves surrounding the family room fireplace are the focal point here, and offer a place to house books and records beautifully for even more visual interest. Head upstairs to finish off the perfect floor plan, where a skylight and a thoughtfully placed window in the stair landing bathe it all in sunlight. Brand new carpeting throughout the second floor guide you through 5 ideal bedrooms. The owners' suite sits in its own separate corner offering the perfect proximity from the rest of the home. Above all of this is a walk-up attic offering practical storage for those things you want to keep, but need less often. When it's time to wrap up the day, there are so many options here. The tidy little screened in porch, the sprawling deck overlooking the flat back yard with its garden beds, or the sweet front yard sitting area nestled romantically under the canopy of a lovely pin oak. Side entrance 2 car garage and parking for 7 to 8 additional cars offer space for guests when visiting. Chapel Hill Transit bus stop just up the sidewalk means easy access to Franklin Street and UNC. This home is in the McDougle walk zones and the breezy sidewalk out front puts you a 600 foot stroll away from Carrboro's beautiful MLK Park with its community garden, playground, walking track, picnic shelters and bike pump track. Move-in-ready and Carrboro perfect...welcome home to 908 Hillsborough
