About this home
Tucked away at the end of a peaceful street, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers quiet living in a location that makes it easy to access everything Carrboro and Chapel Hill have to offer. Cozy and comfortable in scale, the home feels bright and open thanks to spacious 9-foot ceilings and a thoughtful, efficient layout.
A deep, relaxing front porch welcomes you in--perfect for enjoying a quiet morning or unwinding in the evening. At the back of the property, the home looks out toward the woods, creating a peaceful natural backdrop and a sense of privacy that's hard to find so close to town.
From here, it's easy to access the best of the area, including the nearby Tanyard Branch Trail for scenic outings, along with grocery stores, bookstores, cafés,and more. Downtown Chapel Hill and the UNC campus are also conveniently nearby, and public transportation options are close at hand.
The home sits in the heart of a vibrant community. Northside Elementary is just around the corner, and the Hargraves Community Center, AD Clark Pool, and tennis courts are only a few blocks away. The nearby Marian Cheek Jackson Center plays an active role in community building and preserving the rich history of the Northside neighborhood.
This home blends classic character with modern living, featuring an extensive interior renovation completed in 2019 by the prior owner (permit on file with the town). Recent improvements by the current owner add comfort and peace of mind, including a freshly painted exterior (2026), a new vapor barrier in the crawlspace (2026), a replaced main waterline (2021), and a new roof (2022).
Please note: the property includes a deed restriction requiring owner occupancy; investor purchases are not permitted. No income restrictions.
A rare opportunity to enjoy peaceful surroundings, wooded views, and exceptional proximity to the cultural and community life of Carrboro and Chapel Hill....
