What's around 1652 Purple Sage Lane

About this property

Ride out to Purple Sage, in western Chapel Hill, for three wooded acres of rural living in a house full of vintage charm without any of the worries of an older home. This house, built in 2000, features one-of-a-kind millwork and a mantel rescued from an 18th-century Tennessee farmhouse and incorporated into an eclectic contemporary interior design context. Solid hardwood floors and ten-foot ceilings frame unique details like custom built-in bookcases (complete with library ladder), ideal for collections of all kinds, and a tasteful color palette that is anything but boring or expected. Beyond its aesthetic charms this house has been lovingly cared for and updated for the past sixteen years with new systems and upgrades. A large-scale 2013 renovation added a spacious first-floor primary and ensuite bathroom with heated marble tile floors and towel bars, custom vanity, walk-in shower, and soaking tub with a sylvan view, as well as a voluminous walk-in closet with custom built-in dresser. The upstairs bathroom boasts a heated Cuban cement tile floor and palatial European-style walk-in shower with a view of the front forest. A picture of privacy, the house sits on the back of the first acre of the property, with two acres behind it and the benefit of ample neighboring properties of pristine forest, a rambling network of shared trails, and an idyllic nearby creek. Develop your studio practice or store your extra stuff in the wired and insulated 8 x 10 workshop with an attached lean-to garden shed. On the far edge of the broad back lawn, beside the majestic old oak tree, you'll find a large fire pit and a backyard tree house with a 150' zipline, a popular attraction for local kids and adults over the years, that travels nearly the full length of the rear woodlands. Pre-inspection and list of upgrades available.
