Settle into a peaceful, wooded setting in the Cobblestone neighborhood, conveniently located in Carrboro. This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath, two-story home offers 1,977 square feet of flexible living space on a .35-acre lot, just one block from an entrance to the expansive Carolina North Forest trail system. The surrounding Carolina North Forest is identified as a Conservation Area in Perpetuity in the 2019 Carolina North Master Plan, offering the rare opportunity to live alongside a protected natural landscape. With 20+ miles of hiking and biking trails nearby, you can easily connect to nature and explore different parts of the area without getting in the car. The location is especially appealing for those who enjoy an active, lifestyle. Chapel Hill High School is accessible by bike through the trail system, while McDougle Elementary and Middle School are conveniently accessible by bike via neighborhood roads. A nearby park features a BMX pump track, and the famous Carrboro Farmers' Market is just a bike ride or short drive away. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout most of the main level which features high ceilings, granite countertops, and a gas-log fireplace with a blower fan for added warmth and comfort. With ample bedrooms upstairs, some can easily serve as a home office, playroom, or other dedicated-use space. Additional features include abundant attic storage, two locations for washer/dryer hookups, a one-car garage with room for a workshop or hobbies, and a back patio opening to a grassy open area with plenty of natural light and a sense of privacy. Recent improvements include a new water heater in 2024, replacement of one of the two HVAC systems in 2021, and fresh interior and exterior paint in summer 2026. Tucked away on a quiet road while still close to the best of Chapel Hill and Carrboro, this home offers a rare combination of wooded privacy, trail connectivity, convenient amenities, and flexible living space. Come see why people love this side of town!
