This modernist home sits on a .93-acre cul-de-sac lot in the highly rated Chapel Hill School District and combines modern design, thoughtful upgrades, and low county taxes. Built just two years ago, it has been beautifully enhanced inside and out, offering both comfort and long-term value.
The home features high-end Aqua Pro Bradford Oak 12 mm waterproof laminate flooring throughout all three levels—no carpet anywhere—offering the look and feel of real wood with superior durability and sound insulation.
The open-concept main living area connects the living room, dining room, and kitchen, creating an inviting flow perfect for daily living and entertaining. The family room includes a chic recessed electric fireplace, adding warmth and modern appeal. The kitchen shines with quartz countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, open shelving, and stainless steel appliances with a new double oven induction range and refrigerator.
The flexible floor plan includes a first-floor office with a full bath, ideal for guests or remote work. The first-floor bathroom features a heated Toto toilet seat for added comfort and luxury.
Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms. The owner's suite includes a large walk-in closet with a custom organization system and a spa-like bath with a freestanding soaking tub and separate shower.
