One of Four Custom Southern Village Townhomes — 3,275 SF
This is not a typical townhome — it’s one of only four custom duplex-style residences in Southern Village that lives more like a single-family home. The house opens to carefully site-finished hardwood floors and generous millwork that thread through multiple entertaining areas. A dramatic, artist-commissioned metal handrail announces the custom care here; built-ins, thoughtful lighting and an integrated speaker system on the first and second floors are examples of the level of detail you’ll find throughout.
The heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen specified for serious cooking and entertaining: Thermador hood, Dacor dual-fuel range, Miele dishwasher, undermount sink, stainless backsplash and cherry cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting. Counters deliver ample workspace for baking or hosting while a gas fireplace anchors the adjacent living room for relaxed evenings. Multiple decks — three in total — step out to HOA wooded land, giving you private outdoor rooms for morning coffee or summer dinners.
The primary suite reads like a boutique hotel suite with a vaulted ceiling, private balcony, and a spa-inspired bathroom that includes an oversized shower and heated tile flooring. Two additional bedrooms are en-suite, offering privacy for family or guests, and a flexible office/possible fourth bedroom gives extra functional space. Practical systems have been upgraded: newer roof (2019), gas furnace and two AC condensing units (2018), and a new gas tankless hot water heater with on-demand feature (2025). Modern conveniences include a 220V electric-car outlet, Rain Bird irrigation for front and back yards, and motion-sensor lighting.
Ownership here conveys Southern Village amenities without an additional townhome HOA fee — owners pay only the village HOA and maintain their own exteriors. That means you enjoy walking proximity to dining, movies, pool and tennis courts, winding paths and outdoor events, plus fast commutes to UNC, Duke and the RTP. This home blends architectural character, quality systems and a lifestyle-centered location — an uncommon offering in Chapel Hill.

This listing is positioned competitively at the broker list price of $825,000, which matches the valuation midpoint in the structured estimate and equates to roughly $252 per square foot. In Chapel Hill’s close-in neighborhoods — particularly amenity-rich enclaves like Southern Village — larger, turn-key townhomes with high-end finishes frequently attract motivated buyers because inventory in these micro-markets tends to be limited. While broader market conditions can shift, well-appointed homes that combine location, square footage, and upgrades often see quicker interest than generic listings. Buyers looking for access to UNC, local shops, and community amenities should find this product type appealing; sellers can expect a discerning pool of buyers familiar with the value of Southern Village’s programming.
