This is one of the last truly premier, level 1-acre homesites remaining inside Governors Club — an exceptional chance to commission a bespoke executive estate from BOLD Construction. Sited for privacy and scale, the proposed residence exceeds 7,500 square feet and is presented as a fully customizable concept so the buyer directs architectural style, interior selections, and room adjacencies.

The concept plan favors generous gathering spaces and separate wellness and entertainment wings: an owner's suite wing, multiple main-level bedrooms, and an expansive chef-caliber kitchen opening to a large informal living area and patio. Dedicated amenities in the proposed footprint include a home theatre, fitness center, elevator, and a golf/sports simulator — all organized to support both daily family life and large-scale entertaining. A four-car garage and practical mudroom circulation complete the main plan.

Outdoor living is integral to the design with room for a pool, spa, pool bath, and covered terrace for al fresco dining and year-round grilling. The lot’s level grade simplifies a swimming pool and landscape plan while preserving space for lawns, specimen plantings, and private sitting areas. Because Governors Club is home to the Jack Nicklaus 27-hole Signature Golf Course, this property is ideal for owners who want direct access to golf and club amenities while retaining a secluded feel on their own acreage.

Beyond the gate, the location balances tranquility with access: minutes to UNC and Duke, proximate to Research Triangle Park and RDU, and convenient to Chatham Park and major regional medical centers. Plans and photos on file are illustrative of prior builds; final pricing will vary by plan, selections, and site conditions. With a list price of $4,880,000 and a valuation midpoint reflected in the listing data, this lot-and-build opportunity offers a rare combination of scale, customization, and location in one of Chapel Hill’s most desirable club addresses.

Governors Club combines championship golf with club-oriented living on Chapel Hill’s southern edge. Known for its Jack Nicklaus 27-hole Signature Course, the community attracts owners seeking privacy, service, and active amenities. Residents enjoy a country-club rhythm while remaining close to the cultural and academic resources of UNC and nearby Duke, plus the employment centers of RTP and easy access to RDU. Local dining, boutique shopping, and planned developments such as Chatham Park are a short drive away, offering both convenience and regional connectivity.
