116 Elm Street
Carrboro, NC 27510Old Carrboro charm meets modern updates - walk everywhere. This beautifully renovated 1947 bungalow packs style, flexibility, and location into one standout home. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths across 1,355 square feet, it lives larger than expected with smart, versatile spaces throughout. The main level offers two bedrooms and a renovated full bath - perfect for guests or a home office - while the upstairs delivers two bright, skylit bedrooms and a second updated bath, ideal for a private primary suite with room for a nursery, office, or dream closet. Major upgrades are already done: new roof and gutters, sealed crawl space, tankless water heater, renovated kitchen and baths, plus updated plumbing and electrical. Relax on the oversized covered front porch - made for morning coffee and neighborly chats - or unwind in the fenced backyard with space to garden, entertain, and store gear in the detached shed. Step outside and you're in the heart of it all: 1 block to Pizzeria Mercato, 2 blocks to the Carrboro Farmers Market, 3 blocks to Even Dough Bakery, and under half a mile to Weaver Street Market, Open Eye Cafe, Steel String Brewery, Tesoro, Oakleaf, Haw River Tap & Table, Carrburritos, and live music at Cat's Cradle. Updated, walkable, and full of personality - this is Carrboro living at its best.
