It's more than just the layout—it's the design! Welcome to the fantastically fabulous ''Franklin 406,'' originally owned and designed by Jane Molster, who has been featured in Luxe, Veranda, The Wall Street Journal, Southern Living, House Beautiful, and Southern Home, to name a few. Jane is a visionary whose work transcends traditional boundaries. With an appreciation for timeless beauty and a bold eye for modern innovation, she masterfully crafted a space that is both enchanting and inviting. The current owners have LOVED living in this unique, thoughtfully designed home that Jane created. Although they are sad to part ways, life calls—and now it's time for another to enjoy this masterpiece! Unlike many of its neighbors, 406 greets you a bit differently. Instead of stepping directly into the chaos of living, you're welcomed by an entryway that invites you to pause, breathe, and settle in. Turn the corner, and you are greeted by windows and sunlight with northwest views of Chapel Hill, including sunsets you can enjoy from the balcony—with or without a cocktail in hand! The open floor plan offers thoughtfully defined spaces designed for relaxation, reading, dining, and meal preparation. The efficient kitchen provides ample counter space, perfect for creating culinary delights or simply spreading out to enjoy your morning coffee. Generously sized bedrooms with ensuite baths are located on opposite sides, providing privacy for you and your guests—ensuring a good night's sleep! As for life at 140 West, you can enjoy an array of amenities and conveniences, including an exercise and yoga room, a club room complete with a kitchen, fireplace, television, and terrace, plus a sky deck with wonderful views of our little city on the hill. You also have access to 24/7 concierge and security services and a designated lower-level parking space. Located in the heart of Chapel Hill on Franklin Street, you'll have easy access to restaurants, craft cocktail bars, shopping, art exhibits, theater performances, and more. And if you are a lover of all things Tar Heel, you can walk to Kenan, Boshamer, and The Dean Dome if you choose! The current furnishings are part of Jane Molster's collection, and the sellers would love to have it remain with the home as it is the perfect complement to the design elements. A separate bill of sale would be required outside of the offer to purchase and contract. For more information visit: https://www.cribflyer.com/140-w-franklin-street
