Summer is around the corner, and it might just be the perfect time to discover a close-to-town country ranch on a lush one-acre lot. Located just 3 miles from downtown Carrboro and within the esteemed Chapel Hill/Carrboro City School district, yet benefiting from county taxes, this home offers the best of both worlds! With three spacious bedrooms and two original bathrooms adding a sprinkle of vintage charm, it's ready to host your family escapades and gardening adventures. Stepping inside, you'll be captivated by the view across the hardwood floors of the cozy living room, leading to the central stove and scenic forest views beyond. At the back, an expansive deck offers an old-school charm (railing codes were different back then), complemented by a handy shed for all your gardening needs. The kitchen retains its vintage appeal with solid wood cabinetry and white Corian countertops sprinkled with delightful flecks of nougat color. Enjoy your morning coffee and toast while taking in the backyard views from the kitchen's breakfast nook bay window. Just around the corner, a combined pantry, mudroom, and laundry area makes washing less of a chore with its dedicated space. Meanwhile, the garage, cleverly enclosed by previous owners and featuring baseboard heating (untested, so an adventure awaits!), now serves as a haven for hobbyists or a treasure trove of storage-whatever suits your fancy! The house has been pre-inspected, and the current owners have been meticulous caretakers, with all house receipts available for your review. The sellers are ready to pass the torch AS-IS and have priced this delightful abode accordingly. Don't let this opportunity slip through your fingers!
