A rare treasure in the Historic District of Chapel Hill. This stately Colonial Revival home proudly showcases the classic beauty of the 1920s and was built by the Treasurer of the University of North Carolina. Two blocks from campus, it is an easy walk to Kenan Stadium and all Franklin Street has to offer. In the heart of town yet embraces a bucolic feel. Expertly upgraded and remodeled with modern amenities for living your best life among the old oaks and vibrant sidewalks of Downtown and the University. Fronted by the old stone wall, the large, landscaped lot offers a peaceful setting. A charming, renovated two-bedroom cottage on the back of the property is perfect for family, guests or as a rental or Airbnb offering. The main home features the original polished hardwood floors, majestic stone fireplace, handsome wood staircase, luxury finishes and a covered stone side porch. Rounded architectural walls enhance the easy flow and large windows scatter natural light for a stunning ambiance. The well-appointed Chef's kitchen features a large gathering island, stylish wet bar and high end Thermador appliances. Enjoy your beverages or a book on the screened porch off the kitchen. The gracious living and dining rooms provide abundant space with French doors that lead to the side porch for added outdoor living area . Huge primary ensuite bedroom with stunning views and a sitting/dressing room. The main floor bedroom offers the flexibility to also be used for a den or casual dining area. Sunlit office with built-ins, third floor walk in attic storage and more than ample parking. Elegant, functional, timeless and walkable. Indeed, a one of a kind.

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
