About This Home

Nestled in the heart of the Cameron-McCauley Historic District--one of Chapel Hill's most treasured and architecturally significant neighborhoods--this extraordinary +1.24-acre assemblage offers a rare opportunity just steps from the University of North Carolina campus and UNC Hospitals. From this premier location, enjoy effortless walkability to downtown Chapel Hill's shops, restaurants, cultural venues, and university amenities. The offering includes four contiguous parcels improved with five classic Chapel Hill residences, several dating to the turn of the 20th century. Rich in character and historic charm, the homes together offer 26 income-producing rooms, 22 full baths, and 4 half baths, along with 30 parking spaces, a detached garage, and a beautifully sized .19-acre courtyard that creates a private oasis in the center of town. All five structures are contributing properties within the Cameron-McCauley Historic District overlay, reflecting the architectural heritage and enduring appeal that make this neighborhood so special. Whether envisioned as a long-term investment, a multi-generational compound, or a signature Chapel Hill holding, this is a truly uncommon opportunity to own a significant footprint in one of the town's most desirable locations.
