Since Lake Forest was first established in the late 1950s, the original owners have lovingly cared for this property, where generations gathered, children grew up exploring the surrounding woods, and memories were made that have endured for decades. Now, for the first time, this remarkable legacy is being offered to its next steward. Situated on a beautiful .53-acre homesite, 321 Woodhaven is being offered together with the adjoining .63-acre vacant parcel behind it at "0" Rolling Road (PIN #9789974321), creating an extraordinary combined offering of approximately 1.16 acres. Whether preserving the home's character through thoughtful renovation, creating a private estate, or exploring future possibilities with ADU's, this is an opportunity that rarely presents itself in one of Chapel Hill's most cherished neighborhoods. Ideally located just moments from Eastwood Lake, minutes from Village Plaza, UNC campus, and downtown Chapel Hill, this offering represents more than real estate; it is an opportunity to become part of Lake Forest's continuing story. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence with the Town of Chapel Hill regarding future plans, if maximum density is of interest.
