Description

This captivating piece of Chapel Hill history, The Presbyterian Manse, has been lovingly cared for and faithfully preserved by the current owners. This charming home was built about the same year Thomas Edison was born, and was originally the home of Reverend Green, Rector at Chapel of the Cross. Upon entering the front door, you first experience an expansive receiving room flanked by two fireplaces where notable community members have gathered, not far from the foot of an elegant staircase rising to the second-floor bedrooms. The sunlit kitchen enjoys a bay window overlooking trees and flowers in the yard, with an elegant formal dining room or music room located just across the hall. A wood-paneled study and the sunroom are imbued with a sense of comfort and warmth, with built-in shelving lining the walls. A first-floor master and full bath finishes out the main floor, allowing the homeowner the convenience of living entirely on one level, but ample space for guests and family. The generous half acre lot offers room to play and grow. Or simply delight in its seasonal flowers while enjoying a sunny day on the patio.
