316 Old Forest Creek Dr, Chapel Hill, NC 27514

Set within the established, wooded neighborhood of Forest Creek, this 4-bedroom home offers a comfortable blend of space, privacy, and thoughtful updates--on a lot that feels just right, with room to breathe but easy to maintain. Built by J.P. Goforth, known for quality construction, the home has been carefully maintained and enjoyed by the current owners for over two decades. A well-executed addition introduced a main-floor primary suite, along with a spacious screened porch with a vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling overlooking the private, wooded backyard.nAt the center of the home, a sunken living room brings in beautiful natural light through a dramatic wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, paired with a soaring ceiling that adds volume and presence. The subtle shifts in level and ceiling height throughout the home create a sense of architectural interest, while the soft white walls keep the focus on the light, the lines, and whatever you choose to bring into the space. A gas fireplace grounds the room and provides a natural gathering spot as the day winds down. Just a few steps up from the living room, the kitchen features stunning soapstone countertops and smart, well-laid-out cabinetry with full-extension drawers and glass-front doors to display favorite pieces. Simple, well done, and designed to be used and enjoyed. One of the home's strengths is its flexibility, with the option of a primary suite on either the main level or upstairs, allowing the layout to adapt over time
