About This Property

It's a rarity when a home as lovely as this one comes on the market. Rarer still that it is in coveted Forest Hills. Nestled on a quarter-acre lot, this home offers all you'd hope for: big windows overlooking the park-like setting, efficient "classic ranch" floorplan with a crazy good living room, formal dining room, tidy, organized kitchen overlooking the backyard plus three bedrooms and two baths. Downstairs find a finished basement with a room that could be used as a bedroom (there is a closet!) or a family room, a full bathroom PLUS the laundry room and loads of extra storage. There is a door to the outside as well, so both interior and exterior access. Additional features include a cedar closet, new roof, new HVAC. Forest Hills Park is less than a block away. There you will find walking trails, a picnic shelter with grills and tables, pickleball and tennis courts, a playground as well as a sprayground (water misting)! Quick access to American Tobacco Trail, downtown, the restaurant corridor on Chapel Hill Boulevard!
