Property Description
Tucked into a peaceful treetop setting just off Franklin Street, this beautifully updated home designed by renowned architect Arthur Cogswell offers a rare blend of privacy, architectural character, and truly walkable Chapel Hill living. Despite its private, retreat like feel among the trees, the home sits just moments from the heart of downtown, UNC-Chapel Hill, and many of the town's most beloved restaurants, cafés, and local shops. Inside, timeless architecture meets thoughtful modern updates. The beautifully renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring elegant finishes, quality appliances, a built-in reverse osmosis water filtration system, and a layout designed for both everyday living and easy entertaining. Abundant natural light fills the living areas, creating a welcoming warmth that flows throughout. Expansive windows frame sweeping views of the treetop canopy, giving the home an elevated, serene atmosphere that feels almost like living among the branches. The natural landscape embraces the home with calm and privacy, making each window feel like a connection to the outdoors. Outdoor living is equally inviting with two spacious screened porches that provide peaceful places to relax, dine, and enjoy the changing seasons. Thoughtfully designed garden sitting areas and a gentle water feature enrich the tranquil setting, while the walk-out basement offers exciting potential for additional finished living space. The property also includes a convenient Tesla-compatible electric vehicle charging setup. Homes with this level of architectural pedigree and setting rarely come to market, offering a truly special opportunity to experience Chapel Hill living at its most timeless and authentic.
