About This Home

As of April 2026

Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac, this gorgeous home offers a setting that balances privacy with neighborhood connection. With just 69 homes, Sunset Creek is small enough to be a close-knit neighborhood, yet large enough to still offer shared amenities like a community pool and basketball court. The updated kitchen anchors the main level and connects naturally to living and dining spaces, making every day routines and entertaining feel seamless. A large screened porch extends the living area outdoors and looks out over the fenced backyard and wooded backdrop. From the yard, there is even a view of UNC's Rameses. A fenced garden area keeps deer and rabbits at bay while still leaving room to play or relax. Upstairs, the primary suite includes an updated bath, while additional bedrooms and flexible bonus spaces allow the home to adapt to changing needs. The third floor adds another layer of versatility, with a full bath and space that works equally well as a playroom, guest suite, or retreat. Life here stretches beyond the front door. Take advantage of the McDougle ''walk zone'' with paths to nearby schools or embark on an outdoor adventure in Carolina North Forest! Wander into town to check out live music or the Farmer's Market. A home that supports both active days and easy evenings, in a neighborhood that feels established, connected, and genuinely welcoming. It's a home and a lifestyle you'll only find in Carrboro.
