About This Home

As of January 2025

Stunning, move-in ready riverfront beauty! Enjoy days on the water followed by a beautiful sunset without having to renovate or update anything. Located at the end of a dead-end street (no through traffic!) near the Chapel Hill Country Club, this secluded large lot is .85 acre and has room for everybody to enjoy lake life. The home was gutted and remodeled in 2011 and lovingly refreshed and meticulously maintained since then. The stunning eat-in kitchen includes a breakfast bar, granite countertops, a custom barnwood island, large pantry, and plenty of storage throughout. The massive great room is an ideal gathering space that also takes advantage of the incredible view with French doors leading to the huge riverside patio. The primary suite is an incredible retreat located on the first floor and opens to a covered patio with a river view. The ensuite bathroom is spacious, updated, bright and airy featuring a walk-in shower and soaking tub, marble flooring, and bay windows. Upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms, two with French doors leading to a large deck overlooking the river. Another full bathroom is upstairs, as well as the laundry room which doubles as a storage room. The outdoor space is breathtaking with a ton of room for entertaining. The solid, concrete double pier with an electric boat lift and two electric waverunner lifts allows the ultimate boating experience. The two car garage is located in the front along with tons of extra space for guest parking. Absolutely nothing to do but move right in and enjoy life on the river. Schedule your showing today!
