Property Description
Tucked away on a sprawling corner lot of over ½ an acre in the highly desirable North Forest Hills neighborhood, this enchanting one-level Goforth home seamlessly blends modern living with a serene, park-like setting. As you arrive, a welcoming covered front porch invites you inside, where beautifully refinished hardwood floors stretch across an expansive, sun-drenched floor plan. At the heart of the home is a thoughtfully renovated kitchen featuring a sleek peninsula island that opens effortlessly into the dining and family room combination. Here, dramatic walls of windows frame picturesque views of the surrounding landscape—characterized by majestic hardwood trees and striking natural boulders—while a cozy gas fireplace serves as the perfect focal point for warm, inviting evenings. The living space extends outdoors through two separate access points leading to a spacious back deck and a vaulted screened porch—perfect for quiet morning coffees or entertaining guests against a peaceful backdrop. Down the main hallway, a private retreat awaits in the primary suite, while two additional bright bedrooms share a full bathroom. Beyond the property line, the community charm continues with voluntary HOA access to Lake Ellen, located just steps away. Whether you are launching a canoe for an afternoon on the water or enjoying a quiet lakeside picnic, this home offers a rare lifestyle of convenience, community, and natural beauty. Conveniently located to I-40 and downtown Chapel Hill.
