Property Description
Price adjusted. Sellers now offering a $5000 allowance with an acceptable offer. Nestled among mature trees with peaceful views of the neighborhood lake, this beautifully maintained one-level home offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and convenience in desirable Colony Lake. Featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 1,700 square feet, the thoughtfully designed floor plan provides comfortable everyday living with inviting spaces for gathering and entertaining. Large windows, abundant natural light, and hardwood floors create a bright, welcoming feel throughout. A cozy family room with a fireplace opens to a spacious dining and gathering space that serves as the heart of the home. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a gas range, generous counter space, and a skylight that fills the room with natural light. Just beyond the kitchen, the rear entry with laundry offers additional flexible space for a breakfast nook, coffee bar, or drop zone.
The private primary suite offers direct access to the rear deck and includes a spacious bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or hobbies.
Recent improvements provide added value and peace of mind, including a new roof, siding, and water heater (2021), plus HVAC replacement (2019).
Step outside to the expansive rear deck overlooking mature trees and the neighborhood lake, creating a peaceful setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing at the end of the day.
Ideally located just minutes from UNC, Duke, shopping, dining, parks, and major commuting routes, Colony Lake residents also enjoy neighborhood tennis and basketball courts for added recreation. This move-in ready home combines thoughtful updates, tranquil outdoor living, and an exceptional Chapel Hill location. Some photos have been virtually staged to illustrate the home's potential.
