Property Description
Tucked away on a sprawling corner lot of over ½ an acre in the highly desirable North Forest Hills neighborhood, this enchanting one-level Goforth home seamlessly blends modern living with a serene, park-like setting. As you arrive, a welcoming covered front porch invites you inside, where beautifully refinished hardwood floors stretch across an expansive, sun-drenched floor plan. At the heart of the home is a thoughtfully renovated kitchen featuring a sleek peninsula island that opens effortlessly into the dining and family room combination. Here, dramatic walls of windows frame picturesque views of the surrounding landscape-characterized by majestic hardwood trees and striking natural boulders-while a cozy gas fireplace serves as the perfect focal point for warm, inviting evenings. The living space extends outdoors through two separate access points leading to a spacious back deck and a vaulted screened porch-perfect for quiet morning coffees or entertaining guests against a peaceful backdrop. Down the main hallway, a private retreat awaits in the primary suite, while two additional bright bedrooms share a full bathroom. Beyond the property line, the community charm continues with voluntary HOA access to Lake Ellen, located just steps away. Whether you are launching a canoe for an afternoon on the water or enjoying a quiet lakeside picnic, this home offers a rare lifestyle of convenience, community, and natural beauty. Conveniently located to I-40 and downtown Chapel Hill.
