705 Highgrove Dr, Chapel Hill, NC 27516

Highgrove Happiness. This cheerful, enviably renovated and maintained home exudes a soulful spirit. A versatile, open layout includes a main-level primary bedroom plus open kitchen, breakfast and family room heart center. Sun-suffused spaces are fresh, calm, and airy amidst hardwoods, soaring ceilings, substantial moldings, and a focal fireplace. Character-filled and functional updates include: soothing paint colors; white wood shutters and duet blinds; a refreshtastic kitchen with painted cabinetry, granite kitchen counters, glass subway splash, and stainless appliances; insulated walls added in place of open railings to create private and quiet secondary bedrooms; brushed nickel lever door hardware; and stylish lighting. The rest is easy in dreamy bedrooms with roomy closets and so sweet, en suite bathrooms. Soak up the serenity in the primary bath reno outfitted with quartz countertops, recessed multi-mirror medicine cabinets; slate-like tile floor; seamless shower glass with classic white subway surround; and stunning custom, insulated, and private stained-glass window. The secondary bathrooms make a splash with crisp white tile and gleaming brushed nickel fixtures. Alfresco refuges await in the private brick courtyard with vine-covered, pierced brick wall and in the fenced garden with flagstone patio, which, along with brimming perennial blooms, is a certified bird habitat. The good vibes continue with newer HVAC (2017 downstairs and 2021 upstairs with a new zone created for the bedroom above the garage); roof replacement in 2020; and 2023 water heater, safely located in the garage. Idyllic locale - two blocks to swim, tennis, ballfields, trails plus one block to Highgrove Park and walkable to all the village faves: movies, market, munchies and more. Live the High life on Highgrove.
