302 Forest Ct, Carrboro, NC 27510

The best of both worlds, this home is centrally located for access to downtown Carrboro and UNC, but also looks directly on Bolin Forest trails. Wake up to a canopy of forest, but you are only a 9-min bike ride (6-min car ride) 1.5 miles to Weaver St (downtown Carrboro) where there's a cooperative market, farmer's market, good coffeehouses, restaurants and more, or 2 miles to UNC. This two-bedroom two-story home has a gas fireplace, spacious back deck for forest-side dining, and sun-filled reading nooks both upstairs and downstairs. This community of 28 homes is quiet, family-friendly, inclusive, and good for those who appreciate direct access to nature/ trails, but also want to be close to town, conveniences, live music, or a lounge where the bartender remembers your drink preference. From graduate students to retirees, families with school children and singles, it's a kind community ranging in age from roughly 9-90 (yes!) of folks drawn to forest-living with city amenities. Chapel Hill/Carrboro school bus stops directly in front of community (3-min walk to almost any unit). Sun-filled, spacious, meditative, it is an ideal wellness retreat from city living - that is only one mile from it. Minimum one-year lease with option to lock in longer-term lease. Refundable pet deposit required for each pet, maximum two. Tenant covers all utility and internet costs. Cannot park large commercial vehicles on property (homeowner association rules).
