About 8821 Oconee Ct

Custom one-level John Hartley home located on 2+ acres in one of Chapel Hill's most desirable neighborhoods. If you're looking for quality craftsmanship and the perfect balance of quiet and privacy within a neighborhood, this is it! Mature trees, a cul-de-sac lot, a deep front porch and expansive back deck all point toward a slower pace. The attention to detail is evident as soon as you enter and are greeted by a gorgeous wood barreled ceiling, Ash wood floors, arched windows, cathedral ceilings, maple cabinets, quartz counters and stylish fixtures. The oversized windows allow you to take in the lush green surroundings and the flexible floor plan means there are various options for bedrooms and office space. Other improvements include a new roof (2020), whole-house generator, sealed crawl space, new HVACs (2019, 2022) and a whole house water filtration system. The walk-up attic with permanent stairs is great for storage and could be finished out if additional flex space is needed. Enjoy private neighborhood trails and the CHCCS District but with lower taxes!
