Agent Description

Welcome to exceptional LAKEFRONT living in Morehead Forest, nestled within the prestigious gated Governors Club, ranked among the top 150 private clubs in the U.S. Enjoy a refined lifestyle surrounded by the award-winning, world-class 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course.

Perfectly positioned along the shores of Lake Morehead, this elegant residence captures sweeping, uninterrupted water views that create a serene, retreat-like setting for everyday living. Step onto the expansive deck or unwind in the screened gazebo, where the gentle sounds of nature and shimmering lake views offer a true sense of escape.

With 155 feet of waterfront and one of the largest backyards on the lake, the outdoor setting is as impressive as it is rare, ideal for both entertaining and quiet reflection. Inside, walls of windows across both the main and upper levels frame the lake like living artwork, filling the home with natural light and tranquility.

The main level is enhanced by soaring 12-foot ceilings and beautiful millwork, adding volume and elegance throughout the living spaces. The kitchen features granite countertops, a built-in desk with open shelving, a mobile center island, and a sink thoughtfully positioned to capture lake views while overlooking the living and great rooms.

These spaces are anchored by a double-sided fireplace, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere complemented by the ever-present water backdrop. The main-level primary suite offers comfort and convenience, complete with a jetted tub and separate shower, along with a second bedroom ideal for guests, a home office, or library.

Upstairs, a second primary suite with a jetted tub and separate shower is joined by two additional en suite bedrooms, providing exceptional privacy and flexibility. Additional highlights include abundant storage, two walk-in attics, and a spacious two-car garage with a separate dedicated workshop that includes an updraft exhaust.

Ideally located near UNC, Duke, RTP, Jordan Lake, RDU Airport, and premier medical facilities, this distinguished Chapel Hill property offers a rare blend of luxury, privacy, and extraordinary lakefront beauty.
