Seller's Scoop
- View: Sitting on the porch in the morning overlooking the garden with my coffee while watching the cardinals, yellow finches, and hummingbirds.
- Room: In most seasons on the porch watching the natural world. In winter cozy by the fire in the heart of our home.
- Tree: We live on Beech Forest Way and there are many. Plus white oak, hickory, and cedar.
- Walk: Our trails and the surrounding roads take you by creeks, ponds, a vast open field and woods.
- Hike: Haw River kayaking and trails are 10 minutes away. Jordan Lake for boating is 15 minutes.
- Breakfast: The Root Cellar in Mosaic with Chef Sera or the Breakaway Cafe in South Chapel Hill. For an old fashioned diner, locals like Virlie's or the funky Small B&B cafe in Pittsboro.
- Lunch: Doughery's has the best sandwiches and of course, fish and chips. Wood fired pizza at the Mod.
- Dinner: For a unique experience Sycamore or West End Kitchen. For great burgers and pub food, Carolina Brewery & Grill.
- Pub/Winery: There are many pubs, but Havoc has lots of options and live music on the weekends. There's also a new wine bar in town called Vino's.
- Living Here Has Been: While 123 is a peaceful haven set apart from the hustle and bustle of the cities that surround us, we can get to great food, music, and galleries in under 15 minutes. In the mornings here, you can wake up to birdsong and sit outside with your coffee and watch the wildlife. We have deer, fox, hawks, and a heron that visits the creek. The groomed chapel hill grit trails are magical for meditative walks, or meeting a neighbor who passes by and if you walk past our pond, you can catch turtles hanging out and hear the toads chatting to each other. Occasionally you will hear the laughter of children playing in the creek or people taking in a sunset. In spring the butterflies are abundant and cover every flower in our pollinator garden. Plus we've planted blueberries, blackberries, figs, and a pear tree, so there's always something to harvest.And the heated and chilled pool is always the perfect temperature and a great place to hang out with friends.
