37 Abernathy Drive
Chapel Hill, NC 27517There's a difference between a home that checks boxes and one that actually feels... tailored, incredibly comfortable, and has that ''it's been really well cared for'' kinda vibe. 37 Abernathy in Abernathy Place has THAT vibe. It's tucked away in a peaceful enclave of exceptionally well-built townhomes, technically in Durham, but with a Chapel Hill address (yes, that means lower taxes y'all). With 1,755 square feet and a private wooded backdrop from the rear deck, this 3-bedroom home has a setting that feels surprisingly peaceful and yet . . . you are minutes from all the conveniences of Campus (UNC), I-40, South Point Shopping, and RDU Airport. Since 2022, thoughtful and practical updates have been completed making this home ''move in ready'' . . . which these days is music to the ears. Benjamin Moore paint throughout, updated light fixtures, new carpet, new HVAC system, new water heater, and a new convection oven/microwave range along with a few more things add peace of mind. And the icing on the cake? The HOA recently installed a new roof. #worryfree! And while turn-key is fabulous, being near cool things makes it EVEN better. You'll find more than the conveniences mentioned above. As you dig in, you'll find some of the best things about Chapel Hill are within 7 minutes, and we are NOT overestimating: Bluebird Café, Orange Theory, YogaSix, Pure Barre, Harris Teeter (okay not cool but necessary), Starbucks, Hawthorne & Wood, Brenz Pizza, the future Geo's Tavern & Oyster Bar, and of course Bin 54, long known for its award-winning wine list and steaks . . . and THAT is all before you reach the center of UNC's beautiful campus which is about 8 minutes away! So, if you are looking for a diamond in the rough that needs blood, sweat, tears and money . . . this is NOT for you! If, however, you are ready for some peace, quiet, ease, cool neighbors, and convenience, then . . . you've found it! BROKERS PLEASE NOTE: Showings can only be scheduled directly through listing agent and listing agent will need to be present at each showing. 24 hours notice preferred. Thank you!
