About This Home

It's not often that a charming house minutes from UNC comes up, with a fenced in yard and some space, in James Taylor's childhood neighborhood, at a great price! Add to that a newly renovated owner's suite bathroom, fresh paint inside and out, flooring downstairs, and a refreshed kitchen, and you've got an easy transition to the best spot in town. With three bedrooms on the main floor, lots of natural light, and access to Botanical Trails, Morgan Creek, and Merritt's Pasture nearby, your in NC paradise. Downstairs offers another bedroom, flex space, and an unusual amount of storage. Back on market - nothing to do with the house.
