Description

What a location!! One of Chapel Hill's most sought after neighborhoods. Walk/ride your bike to Timberlyne shopping center, Cedar Falls Park, East Chapel Hill HS! Beautifully built brick home with stunning standing seam copper awning over charming bay in bright breakfast room.

Loads of storage throughout. Fun house to live in. Brick patio area, SO much yard space can be a gardener's dream, enhanced entertainment space or a giant play area. It has known many years of laughter, egg hunts, outdoor games and barbecues! There is also quite a bit more land, part of this property to the right of the driveway a now abandoned Duke Power easement. Among other things we put in a ''Gardenia Dell'' there!
