Charm and convenience combine in the historical district of Chapel Hill. This quintessential Carolina home sits just blocks away from coffee, local restaurants and boutique shops. An airy, covered front porch welcomes you into 208 Hillsborough Street. Step into the naturally lit living room, floored by hardwoods, centered around the stately brick fireplace. Pocket doors lead to a formal dining room that can become a wonderful home office, presenting you the opportunity to close the doors to your busy work life and relax after a job well done. The kitchen adds modern touches to the farmhouse feel. Display your finest china on the custom, open shelving, cook to your hearts desire on the range and bask in the warm glow of sunlight. The main floor also hosts a spacious bedroom with private access to the grounds. Through the bedroom is an immense closet area with its own kitchenette and full bathroom. A laundry ripe with organizational options sits across from the living room and a second full bathroom.
Past the banisters and up the stairs are three more bedrooms, including the master. An original brick fireplace resides in the sitting area, reminding you of the historical touches throughout the home. Through the walk-in closet is a bathroom that will become a serene escape from all your chaos. Soak your trouble away in the deep, garden tub with your favorite book or glass of wine. A full bathroom is shared by the additional second floor bedrooms. Both are equally spacious. The third bedroom features original built-in closets with a vanity placed in-between.
The third-floor bonus room is currently being utilized as a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. Anyone would be lucky to call this third-floor retreat home with its sprawling hardwoods and beautiful view.
Abundant outdoor living space provides opportunity to unwind and enjoy your lush surroundings. A screened in patio allows for outdoor relaxation without being pestered by some of North Carolinas least favorite flying critters. Listen to the music of crickets while the sun falls on the patio, basking in the beauty of the gardens and greenery. Walk to nearby downtown and bring back your morning coffee or afternoon ice cream treat to the covered front porch, complete with ceiling fans to create a breeze on those dog days of summer.
Deep in the heart of Tar Heel country, 208 Hillsborough Street rests peacefully as it has for over a century. Historical as it may be, the home has been treated with love and remains an up-to-date, three-level home with all your modern amenities. Whether a family home or wise investment, anyone lucky enough to live inside these walls will become enriched in its deep, Carolina roots.
