## Description

### Agent Description
Set on a private 1.02-acre lot just 3.3 miles from UNC, this 3,631-square-foot Laurel Hill home offers the ease of primarily one-level living with the added flexibility of a private upper-level suite. Expansive living and dining spaces flow into an updated kitchen featuring a gas range, farmhouse sink, beverage fridge, and modern finishes. A light-filled sunroom overlooks the patio and fenced backyard, creating inviting spaces for everyday living and entertaining. Hardwood floors crafted from wood harvested on the original owner's property add warmth and character throughout. The main level features the primary suite plus additional bedrooms ideal for family, guests, or a home office. Upstairs, a private bedroom, full bath, and adjoining flex room create an ideal second primary suite, guest retreat, or secluded workspace. An unfinished basement provides exceptional storage and room for hobbies or future expansion. Located in one of Chapel Hill's most established neighborhoods, this home offers the rare combination of acreage, generous living space, and an unbeatable location just minutes from UNC, shopping, dining, parks, and downtown Chapel Hill.
