About This Home
Built for real life. Multigenerational living, rental income, or a private workspace -- this Chapel Hill Craftsman delivers the kind of flexibility that most homes simply cannot offer. A fully equipped ADU with private entrance sits above the garage, while the main residence provides 2,959 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space across three levels, all within minutes of UNC, Duke, and downtown Chapel Hill. The ADU is the defining feature. Self-contained and intelligently appointed -- full bath, washer/dryer, dishwasher, custom cabinetry, and Murphy bed -- it functions as a genuine apartment. Faculty relocating to the area, families navigating multigenerational living, and investors seeking immediate rental income will recognize what this represents: a property that works as hard as you do. The main residence is equally considered. An open main level flows from generous living spaces to a screened porch and deck overlooking a wooded HOA buffer, complete with outdoor fireplace and refrigerator -- the kind of outdoor living that Chapel Hill's climate rewards. A main-level bedroom and full bath serves guests, an in-home office, or a family member who needs proximity without sacrificing privacy. Upstairs, the primary suite anchors a floor that includes two additional bedrooms, a dedicated laundry room, and ample storage. The third floor offers a bonus room with full bath -- equally suited as a media room, creative studio, or fifth bedroom. Additional appointments include a two-car garage with EV charging, invisible pet fence, and access to Claremont's pool, clubhouse, and trail network, with walkable access to schools. Appraised at $1,000,000.
