Enjoy life at this private resort on four acres in Carolina Forest where properties rarely change hands. Only 15 minutes from UNC campus. From the minute you pull into the driveway, your stress begins to melt away. You notice the beautiful landscaping and classic architecture of the home, clad in natural cedar siding. Hear the birds chirping on the magnificent wooded lot. Your eyes are drawn to the pool, but you want to see inside first. Enter the large foyer and you'll immediately notice the unique pegged hardwood flooring and custom trim work. Past the large dining room filled with natural light, you enter the chef's kitchen, renovated with custom cabinetry, high-end finishes and high end appliances -- ideal for home chefs. You immediately notice the spacious layout of the home, thoughtfully designed with a main-floor primary suite, a dedicated study, and both living and family rooms on each level, providing flexibility for work, relaxation and entertainment. The master suite was updated with a gorgeous frameless tiled walk-in shower and luxurious spa. There are three bedrooms on each level, so this is a great option for families looking for a multi-generational home. Enjoy outdoor living at its best with breathtaking views from the screened-in porch and expansive deck, perfect for morning coffee or evening gatherings. Your favorite feature will be the resort-style 20' x 40' pool that offers a private oasis for fun and entertaining. The detached two-story garage and workshop is amazing. It provides a 2-car garage and a workshop on the main level with a partially finished upper level that provides endless opportunities for a guest suite, home office, or creative space. This rare hillside retreat is a perfect blend of luxury and function, offering privacy while remaining close to top-rated schools, dining, and shopping in Chapel Hill.
