Description

This thoughtfully updated split-level home offers flexible living in a setting that's quietly one of Chapel Hill's most special pockets. A 2022 kitchen renovation reimagined the main living level, while the original kitchen was relocated to the lower level, creating a fully functional secondary space with dishwasher, plumbing in place for a refrigerator with icemaker, and wiring ready for an electric range and over-range microwave. The layout allows for a variety of uses, including guest space, extended living, or future rental potential. A removable custom cabinet beneath the upstairs kitchen peninsula can be taken out to accommodate a ventless washer and dryer combo, with electrical already in place behind the cabinet if a future owner chooses to make that change. Two of the three bathrooms have been fully renovated, including a just-completed primary bath in 2026 and the hall bath in 2023. Hardwood floors and tile run throughout the main and upper levels, with LVP installed downstairs in 2021. Additional updates include a new gas pack in 2021, water heater in 2022, and extensive plumbing and electrical improvements, including the addition of an EV charger in the 2-car carport. A new washer and dryer were installed in 2025. Interior paint has been refreshed throughout, and the exterior siding and front door were just painted in 2026. Outside, the fenced backyard includes a newly built wood fence (2025), a storage shed, and a lovely brick patio that's genuinely a great spot to spend time. Beyond the property itself, the neighborhood is what truly sets this home apart. Tucked into a wooded, established area just minutes from UNC-Chapel Hill, this community blends convenience with easy access to a park, trails, a lake, and green space. From the house, it's an easy walk to a neighborhood park with a playground, picnic shelter, and trails that lead up to one of Chapel Hill's most unexpected features, a wooded ridge often referred to as the neighborhood's ''mountain.'' Along the way, a basketball court sits tucked among the trees. In the other direction, also within walking distance, Lake Ellen offers access for kayaking and small boats for residents through a modest optional annual HOA. The neighborhood stays active year-round, with seasonal celebrations, bonfires, a hot dog roast, luminary displays benefiting Ronald McDonald House Charities, and an active listserv that keeps neighbors connected. Don't miss this unique corner-lot property with a setting that's hard to replicate, offering both versatility inside and a location that keeps daily life close at hand.
