Description
An amazing opportunity to live in a custom built home in The Oaks, Chapel Hill's highly sought-after country club neighborhood! Exquisitely reimagined and lovingly maintained, this Goforth contemporary offers natural light, open space, and views of trees all around it. The tone is set the moment you step into the welcoming foyer, where crab orchard stone flooring introduces the home's distinctive architecture, clean lines, and walls of windows that invite the outside in. Entertaining is effortless in the expansive family room, anchored by a cozy gas-log fireplace and custom built-ins. Just beyond, the dining room commands attention with a designer chandelier, vaulted ceilings, and dramatic windows with plentiful natural light. At the heart of the home is a beautifully renovated kitchen that is as functional as it is stylish. Boasting quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and an elite appliance package, including a KitchenAid range, Thermador microwave, and Bosch dishwasher. Perch on barstools while overlooking the chef at work or enjoy your meal at the table overlooking the expansive deck. Whether you're heading to the dedicated home office or mixing a drink at the serving bar, the layout is designed for modern living. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a luxurious private sanctuary, complete with striking vaulted ceilings and a beautifully appointed spa bath featuring an updated double vanity with quartz countertop and designer lights. Every bedroom in this home is thoughtfully designed, including two additional upstairs ensuites. A bonus room on the main level can serve as a 4th bedroom or a playroom, media room, or hobby space. In addition to the numerous interior updates, the home also has had these recent updates: exterior trim/board & batten work, exterior paint, one new water heater, new ac - all in 2024, and new roof around 2020. Outside, enjoy gracious outdoor living with a covered porch, a private back deck, a second, spacious deck overlooking the fenced backyard, and curated landscaping. Complete with a two-car porte-cochere, circular drive, and versatile lower-level unheated workshop space, this home truly has it all.
