This beautiful 5-bedroom home sits in a low property tax area within easy reach of top Chapel Hill schools. Enjoy serene lake views right from your backyard, with a small lake bordered by a natural walking trail circling the water, plus a wooded, vacant lot on the left for extra privacy. Step outside onto two tier back decks, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the water view. The home features two-car entry garage and a walkout basement with its own door and windows — ideal for a home gym, rec room, or flexible living space. Inside, you'll find a versatile floor plan with an office/sunroom, formal living room, dining room, and a separate family room, plus 4 bathrooms (3 full, 1 half). Beautiful hardwood floors mix with carpets run throughout the first floor, and a new architectural shingle roof (installed 2025) means peace of mind for years to come. A rare combination of lake views, privacy, and living space — this one won't last long.
