A rare Chapel Hill property offering privacy, acreage and possibilities beyond the home itself. Set on approximately 2.2 wooded acres, the property includes three separate R-1 parcels of record, offering potential future development opportunities subject to applicable approvals and permitting. The well-maintained home features a functional main-level layout with three bedrooms, two baths, spacious living areas and kitchen, plus a partially finished basement with bonus space and generous storage. Mature trees create the feel of a private slice of the country in the middle of Chapel Hill, while the rear deck provides a peaceful place to enjoy the setting. Recent improvements include a new roof in 2026, HVAC replacement in 2023 and rear deck replacement in summer 2026. Whether enjoyed as a private wooded retreat, a home with room to grow, or a property with longer-term, flexible possibilities, this is an unusually versatile Chapel Hill opportunity.
