Showings Begin Saturday 3/14 @ 1030AM. Set quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac, this home delivers a level of design and scale that's rare to find in a split-level. The renovation was approached with intention, pairing clean modern finishes with thoughtful upgrades behind the walls so the result feels cohesive, elevated, and ready to live in from day one. Every improvement was completed with permits, adding an extra layer of confidence in the quality of the work. The main living area is truly a standout. Far larger than most homes of this style, the space offers the kind of flexibility designers appreciate. It is large enough to comfortably support multiple seating areas, whether that means a conversation space, a traditional living room setup, or a combination of both. New 9-inch wide, 20-mil LVP flooring runs throughout, grounding the interior with durability and a refined modern look. The kitchen was completely redesigned with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a striking quartz backsplash that adds subtle dimension and polish. A large slider window over the sink fills the space with natural light, while brand new appliances and updated lighting complete the room with a clean, contemporary feel. All bathrooms have been fully updated, and the layout offers a surprising level of privacy and flexibility. The lower level features a true primary suite with a spacious walk in closet and an oversized bathroom, creating a quiet retreat separate from the main living areas. Upstairs, one of the bedrooms includes its own half bathroom, an uncommon and highly practical feature for guests, family members, or a private office setup. Beyond the cosmetic improvements, the home also benefits from meaningful mechanical updates, including a brand new heat pump system, new PVC plumbing in the lower level, and updated water lines. Outside, the property has been refreshed to open up the lot and maximize the yard. Eighteen trees were cleared and the entire yard was hydroseeded, creating a clean slate for the expansive backyard. The lot sits on a cul-de-sac and is already fenced on multiple sides, making it easy to complete a fully enclosed yard while still enjoying the generous outdoor space. Location enhances the home's appeal. Residents enjoy the charm and amenities of Hillsborough just minutes away, with restaurants, shops, and daily conveniences like grocery stores close at hand. Outdoor recreation is within easy reach, including scenic trails and river access at Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area and Eno River State Park. Commuters benefit from convenient access to Interstate 40 and Interstate 85, making trips to Durham, Chapel Hill, and beyond effortless while still returning to the quiet, tree-lined streets of this desirable neighborhood.

A rustic ramble through twenty-eight picturesque acres of Piedmont forest in Chapel Hill suddenly reveals this singular and stunning cozy Brutalist home, perched over idyllic Neville creek encircling a secluded property surrounded by lush flora and fauna. Designed by revered local architect Louis Cherry, the house draws inspiration from the domestic architecture of modernist masters Le Corbusier and Carlo Scarpa with their emphasis on graceful functionality, industrial materials, and open spaces. A classic modernist deck house once stood on the building site; unfortunately, it could not be saved. For his vision of the new home, the owner fully embraced the concept of ruinenlust, leaving the abandoned brick chimney and former foundation to provide contrast and counterpoint, counterpoising these discrete derelict structures alongside the bold, clean lines of the new cantilevered concrete construction. The house is rich in materials that soften the industrial concrete framework, from the reclaimed 19th century wide-plank hardwood floors (each hand-stained for uniformity), to the inviting tactility of the burlap walls in the living room, to the design-forward Enzo Mari-esque plywood kitchen. These thoughtful details are further elevated by the sweeping floor-to-ceiling windows, which suffuse the expansive interior spaces with sunlight and shadowplay, reflecting flickering glimpses of the landscape outdoors onto the walls and across the floors. The house unfolds over three levels, including two bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom featuring Heath Ceramics tiles, Duravit sinks and Hansgrohe faucets. The library sitting room, which could double as a third bedroom, is just off the long corridor overlooking the front courtyard. The heart of the home is the open entertaining space, with ample room for an oversized dining table, and the deep sunken living room, with its impressive fireplace hearth and custom built-in cabinetry. The stairs lead up to a third level and open out onto a spacious screened-in porch and an open rooftop deck that offers a tree-house vista of the surrounding scenic woodlands. A network of trails weaves through the property, leading to a magnolia grove established by the former owners of the original deck house, who were expert rare magnolia specimen collectors. It's an outdoor space perfect for peaceful contemplation, parties, or even pastoral weddings. This dreamy location is surprisingly only 3 miles from downtown Carrboro, where you can frequent all the best bars, coffee shops, restaurants, and grocery stores in the area. This remarkable home is truly incomparable, utterly unlike any other in the Triangle.
