Property Description

Second star to the right and straight on 'til Tinkerbell! This magical Colony Woods home offers the space, flexibility, and a backyard that will make you think you are dreaming. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout—no carpet anywhere—while large windows fill the home with natural light. The renovated kitchen features a generous island and beautiful backyard views, with two spacious living areas, a formal dining room, and a large laundry room completing the main level. Upstairs, four bedrooms provide room for everyone and everything, whether you need sleeping space, home offices, or a little hideaway of your own. The expansive screened porch is where the magic really begins, overlooking a peaceful, secluded, fully fenced backyard filled with mature trees, fruit trees, chicken coop, storage sheds, and an enchanting cob house worthy of its own storybook. There is room to garden, gather, play, explore, and let your imagination run wild. Colony Woods is one of Chapel Hill's most beloved neighborhoods, known for its mature trees, spacious lots, and walkable streets where neighbors stop to talk and often become friends. No HOA; so no chance Captain Hook will squash your plans for your house and yard! Walk to Ephesus Elementary and Ephesus Park for its fantastic playground and some of the best pickleball courts around. Voluntary membership is also available at the walkable Ridgewood Club, offering a pool, playground, sand volleyball, and neighborhood fun all summer long. All of this is tucked away in a wonderfully convenient location near UNC, Duke, I-40, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, restaurants, trails, and just about everything else. Magical, practical, and ready for its next adventure - welcome to your own little corner of Neverland.
