What's Coming Up in Chapel Hill? 🎃

Spooky season is officially here, and Chapel Hill's kicking it off right — Movies Under the Stars is bringing The Nightmare Before Christmas to the Carolina Square lawn. Come early to meet some adoptable dogs (bonus points if one has Zero-level spirit), grab free popcorn, and settle in as the sun goes down. Friday, September 25, right in the heart of downtown.

❤Nights like this are exactly why we love this town. So much fun!

Meet 932 Lystra Lane, an absolute MUST SEE!🔥

A sunroom that spills onto a big patio. A wood-burning stove glowing in the family room. A private fourth bedroom with its own bath, ready for guests or a home office. It's all brick, tucked into Woodhaven Estates, a Chapel Hill cul-de-sac with only 13 homes, and Southern Village, downtown and UNC are all close.

Space like this in a location like this is rare, and homes that offer it rarely linger. Private showings are available now. Message me and I'll arrange yours. 🗝️

Triangle Market Update | Week Ending 9/19 📍

Pittsboro and other Chatham County cities are on a roll 🔑 Prices are climbing, days on market are dropping, and homes keep going under contract.

Chapel Hill and Durham prices eased slightly, with a few extra days on market. That's a normal seasonal shift, not a signal. However, pricing for the market, and not chasing the market become increasingly important.

Buyers are showing up ready. They know exactly what they want and are willing to pay for it. 🎯 Sellers, that means your strategy needs to be just as sharp, and it starts with a consultation with an experienced agent before you launch.

Is your home quietly becoming one of the Triangle's most valuable addresses? 🏡✨

Let's find out. Call or text me at 919-414-0337.

JUST LISTED IN WOODHAVEN ESTATES

932 Lystra Lane is now available, offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and generous one-level living on approximately .90 acre.

Often, the next person to appreciate a neighborhood is someone already connected to it—a friend, family member or colleague of someone who lives nearby.

If someone comes to mind who you think would enjoy calling Woodhaven Estates home, I'd be delighted if you shared 932 Lystra Lane with them.

Has your home quietly become one of Chapel Hill’s most valuable addresses? We’d be happy to provide a consultation and personalized strategy around your goals.

Some houses just know what they want to be.

407 Granville Road was one of those — a 1961 modernist gem in Chapel Hill, brought back to life by Chelsea Combs of Green Hill Contracting with real respect for its bones and a clear eye for how we actually live now.

When it was time to find this home its next chapter, Chelsea didn't just want it listed — she wanted it understood. That's the part of this work I love most: sitting with a seller, hearing what they poured into a place, and figuring out how to help a stranger fall in love with it too.

We prepped it with intention and told its story with care — to buyers and to the Chapel Hill community who'd appreciate it. And it worked, because the right buyer came along who saw exactly what Chelsea saw.

Grateful for the trust Chelsea put in us to tell this beautiful story. 🏡✨

Some homes ask you to choose between peace and proximity. This one simply refuses.

Set at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac in Carrboro and wrapped in trees, 110 A Todd St offers a rare kind of calm — minutes from everything downtown, yet worlds away from the noise of it.

Inside, newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint set the tone, while the open living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together effortlessly. The kitchen is the centerpiece — painted wood cabinetry, granite counters, and a center island made for both quiet mornings and gathering with friends.

Both bedrooms offer generous proportions and tranquil, tree-lined views. The bathroom carries timeless character with penny-tile flooring and a classic pedestal sink. Outside, two covered porches and a private, tree-shaded patio extend the living space beautifully.

Just beyond the front door: Bolin Creek Trail, Umstead Park, and the Libba Cotten bikeway, along with Carrboro staples like Weaver Street Market, the Farmers' Market, and Even Dough Bakery.

A rare balance of privacy and proximity, in one of the Triangle's most sought-after communities.

Your family's next chapter starts in the trees. 🌲✨

Imagine Thanksgiving at your own private treehouse retreat near Jordan Lake… cousins running the trails, s'mores at the fire pit, and when the family's not in town? It's working for you.

Welcome to Elevate Treehouse Community — Pittsboro's best-kept secret, and quite possibly the smartest 3.72 acres in the Triangle.

Four individually themed luxury tiny homes (~1,030 sq ft each), all with full kitchens, dreamy lofts, and spa-worthy baths — connected by walking trails, water features, and art around every corner. Think: Full Bloom's floral escape, Galaxy's celestial calm, Bee Hive's swing-set charm, and Oasis H2O's soaking-tub serenity.

This isn't just a vacation home. It's a family compound with built-in flexibility — host relatives, rent it out when you're not there (established rental history = turnkey from day one), or claim the whole portfolio and own all four for $1M.

Individual packages from $500K. The whole treehouse village? Yours for $1M.

Reach out to tour Elevate Treehouse — because family memories (and smart investments) belong in the trees. 🏡💫

Nestled on more than five private acres just outside Chapel Hill and Carrboro, 2219 Ridgewood Road offers a rare kind of scale — space to gather, space to retreat, and space for everyone who matters to have a place of their own.

Beyond the gate and beneath the trees, the home unfolds with Brazilian cherry floors, custom millwork, a dramatic stacked-stone fireplace, and a kitchen made for lingering as much as cooking. Skylit window seats, built-in desks tucked into the bedrooms, and a primary suite that feels like its own retreat all speak to a home designed around how people actually live.

But it's the connected guest suite that sets this property apart. Linked to the main house by a covered breezeway and shared screened porch, it offers a full bedroom, bath, kitchenette, and private entrance — genuinely separate, genuinely private, and ready for extended family, visiting friends, a live-in caregiver, or a standalone home office or studio. It's the kind of flexibility that's nearly impossible to find, especially paired with everything else here.

Outside, five-plus wooded acres hold a saltwater pool, a gazebo-style living area, a treehouse, garden paths, and even an edible landscape of figs, berries, passion fruit, and banana trees.

Some homes accommodate a season of life. This one adapts to every one of them.

What's Coming Up in Durham? 🎨

There's something about fall in Durham that just feels different — cooler air, packed patios, and CenterFest taking over downtown for the weekend. Now in its 52nd year, it's 100+ artists, live music drifting across the plaza, and the kind of people-watching that makes you remember why you love this city. September 19 & 20, right in the heart of it all.

Check out the graphic for the full scoop 😍

This is what makes Durham feel like home!

Good morning, friends! ☀️

Triangle Real Estate Market Update

September has us settling into that familiar Fall shuffle. More homes are hitting the market, days-on-market are stretching just a touch, prices are steadying, and we're seeing a few more adjustments happen. All of this is right on cue for the season — a market finding its seasonal rhythm, not a market losing steam.

What it means for you: pricing and presentation matter more right now than they did in July. A home that's intentionally prepared — thoughtful staging, a real marketing plan, and sharp pricing from day one — still moves. A well-connected local Realtor with an active buyer base of clients is your edge in a market like this one.

Wondering what this shift means for your specific situation? Let's talk.
