Cozy Chapel Hill cottage meets spacious 2 level on the edge of Durham. Truly a blend of both worlds in this charmer and the perfect location! Tucked into the quiet tree-lined streets of sweet, sweet Colony Woods! Down the street from Trader Joe's, Wegmans, Whole Foods, shops & restaurants. 3 Miles to UNC and 6 to Duke. Only a skip to I-40, RTP and RDU! And the home has so much to offer! 5 bedrooms total with the main level a modernized 3 bed & 2 bath ranch, updated to an open floor plan, added skylights, stylish finishes and just refinished hardwood floors. But there is SO MUCH more! The lower level expands and just keeps on going! An in-law or teen dream, there are 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2 living areas one with bar (formerly a full kitchenette and could be again), AND 2 HUGE storage areas. All high-quality vintage construction, made with solid lumber, solid surfaces and to last the ages! Updated to be light and airy, connected but with enough room for everyone to have their own space to retreat. Yard and lot also a great combo, beautiful hardwoods and a big fig tree out front, established shrubs and open yard to play. One side is town greenspace for privacy but no maintenance. Hard to find home with so much charm and flexibility, inside & out and location is unbeatable! Get anywhere in the Triangle fast! Come stroll the quaint neighborhood streets by day, take five to go out on the town at night and return home for a star gaze off the big back deck. All the reasons we love it here and more!
