Set on nearly half an acre in one of Chapel Hill`s most established and convenient neighborhoods, this beautifully updated five-bedroom home offers the space, flexibility, and outdoor living that are increasingly difficult to find. The main level features hardwood floors, gracious living and dining spaces, a comfortable family room with fireplace, and an updated kitchen with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and an easy connection to the home`s gathering spaces. A rare first-floor bedroom includes its own private entrance, creating exceptional flexibility for a home office, guest suite, studio, or private living space. An additional area provides the option for a second laundry location. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is joined by three additional bedrooms, allowing plenty of room for work, guests, hobbies, and everyday life. One of the home`s true highlights is the huge screened-in porch, an inviting outdoor living room overlooking the private, wooded backyard. Multiple decks, a fenced yard, and a detached storage building expand the possibilities for entertaining, gardening, recreation, and storage. The generous 0.47-acre lot offers breathing room, mature trees, and a sense of privacy rarely found this close to the heart of Chapel Hill. With no HOA and convenient access to UNC, shopping, dining, healthcare, and major employment centers, the location is every bit as compelling as the home itself. Assigned to the exemplary and heavily sought-after Ephesus Elementary, Phillips Middle, and East Chapel Hill High schools, this property delivers an exceptional combination of location, versatility, outdoor space, and lasting value.
