Property Description
Rare opportunity to own the historic Gabriel Utley House (c. 1849), a Greek Revival-style residence recognized as a Contributing Building within the Chapel Hill Historic District. Ideally located near downtown Chapel Hill and UNC, this distinctive property combines more than 175 years of history with extensive recent improvements. Situated on land that was part of Chapel Hill's original town lots established in 1793, the home is believed to date to approximately 1849, with preservation research suggesting portions of an even earlier structure may remain. Its historic architecture and period details reflect generations of Chapel Hill history. Offering approximately 2,162 square feet, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home retains its original charm while benefiting from substantial renovations. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof, new air-conditioning system, refinished hardwood floors, updated bathrooms with new showers, and extensive interior updates to drywall, ceilings, trim and paint. Exterior improvements include siding and fascia repairs, gutter work, insulation, roof-support improvements and numerous additional upgrades. Inside, high ceilings, beautiful wood floors, abundant natural light and architectural details complement the refreshed living spaces, creating a welcoming blend of historic character and modern comfort. Situated on approximately 0.30 acres, the property offers generous outdoor space in a highly desirable central location, with convenient access to Franklin Street, UNC, restaurants, shopping and parks. With its rich history, architectural character, prime location and significant recent investment, the Gabriel Utley House presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of Chapel Hill's past while enjoying the benefits of today's improvements.
