Property Description

Life can be overwhelming and chaotic, but imagine having the space to breathe, stretch out, and find a sense of calm on 1.67 acres—yet still be close to everything that makes life convenient. For over 30 years, the owners of 537 Chatham Drive took sanctuary here, back when Chatham County wasn't even ''on the map.'' They created a charming retreat on 1.67 acres that is NOW READY for YOU to come experience the serenity and personalize it to make it all your own.

FOR JUST THE FACTS SCOLL ALL THE WAY DOWN!


537 is nestled in Highland Estates—an enclave of custom-built homes just outside of Highland Forest. While connected, Highland Estates offers spacious lots, larger homes, and a level of privacy that is often sacrificed in the name of ''density.''
Built with quality and care, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home features a main-floor owner's suite for easy living, a formal dining room for proper gatherings, and a cozy breakfast area for casual meals. The family room includes skylights that flood the space with natural light, adding warmth. It adjoins the kitchen, creating a world where entertaining, cooking, and still being together can co-exist. As you enter, you'll find a private den or home office off the foyer—an ideal space for focused work or peaceful relaxation.
The expansive screened porch overlooks a large, maturely landscaped backyard, perfect for entertaining or enjoying quiet mornings with nature. And sitting quietly out back, tucked a bit away and minding its own business, is a custom-built ''he or she'' shed, designed to match the home's aesthetics and built with the same quality and care.
Honorable mentions include two drywalled, walk-in storage areas, making organization a breeze, and an oversized two-car garage equipped with cabinets, providing even more storage space for all your needs.
Meticulously maintained over the years, this home is move-in ready, offering both comfort and potential for updates that reflect your personal style. Located with easy access to all the offerings of Chapel Hill and Carrboro and within ''earshot'' is grocery shopping and great local dining options such as Breakaway Cafe and Town Hall Burgers at Briar Chapel. At 537: Enjoy an idyllic setting while life remains EASY!

1.67 acres of peace and privacy in the HIGHLAND ESTATES- an enclave of custom homes; single ownership; 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 1 1/2 bath, open kitchen, breakfast family; high ceilings creating open and airy feel; private office (or den); separate dining room; two dry-walled walk-in storage areas; ''she or he'' shed with power; small part of the yard fenced for furry friends.
