About 1 Tadley Drive
Stately Colonial Charm in the Heart of Lake Forest! Welcome to One Tadley Drive, a quintessential Chapel Hill gem ready for its next chapter. This refined traditional home beautifully blends classic architectural details with a spacious, functional layout. The main level features a massive family room loads of natural light, a bright kitchen with a casual breakfast area, an elegant formal dining room, and a dedicated home office. Off the kitchen, a cozy den serves as the perfect entertainment hub, complete with a wet bar and glass-faced cabinetry. Step through the den into a sunporch featuring a woodstove to enjoy on chilly evenings, leading out to a raised patio with panoramic views of the front, side, and rear yards. A full bathroom and a large pantry complete the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private sanctuary with a walk-in closet and en-suite bath. Three additional genrously sized bedrooms share a charming hall bath. Conveniences like a dedicated upper-level laundry room and abundant hallway storage elevate daily living. Throughout the home, period moldings, pristine hardwood floors, and character-rich vintage tile bathrooms add timeless appeal. Outside, a circular driveway with a stone walled parking court leads to a 2-car carport with an attached storage room, complemented by a secondary storage area beneath the patio. Mature trees frame the property, offering a scenic walk down to Markham Drive. Turn left to discover the hidden path to Eastwood Lake park, featuring a pavilion, beach, and floating dock in the popular swimming area. Dues are optional, but highly recommended in order to enjoy the Lake Forest Association's excellent amenities! At this special home, enjoy fresh paint and a brand-new roof on both the home and carport. Several pre-marketing exterior and crawl space repairs were completed by a licensed General Contractor, with key work reviewed and approved by a licensed Structural Engineer. Live like you're on vacation while enjoying the ultimate Chapel Hill lifestyle at One Tadley Drive!
