This clean and well-kept three-bedroom, one-bath 1950’s cottage sits adjacent to the Cameron-McCauley Historic District toward the west end of Franklin Street in a small but lively city neighborhood. As an older home, it carries some vintage charm from the era: original character, cozy proportions, and a few quirks that come with the territory. We've made thoughtful updates throughout and take great pride in keeping it clean and well-maintained for every guest.
You have everything you need! Along with area attractions you’ll find a bustling local population including residents and UNC students coming and going from classes. Two bike paths cross directly into the neighborhood, so bring your bike or simply enjoy them on foot.
Chapel Hill is nicknamed, “Southern Part of Heaven''. It is home to the UNC Chapel Hill Tar Heels, the first state university, established in 1793. We hope you enjoy the updates we’ve made. Please make yourself at home!

Great little spot near Chapel Hill! The house was perfect.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
This home was a great convenient location to Chapel Hill andCarrboro. It was easily walkable to anywhere we wanted to go. The home allowed pets, which was very helpful for us. It was very clean and well-maintained. The owners were extremely responsive.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
Location is great and everything about the property was fine. But I have three complaints.First, we brought our dog but until you see the notebook in the house, with the house rules, we were unaware that the owners expected our dog to be crated if she was to be left alone. Without explicit mention on the web page, how is anyone supposed to know that they need to bring a dog crate? Pretty sure that rule is unenforceable.Second, the house notebook also states that absolutely no guests are allowed. I can understand no parties but no guests at all? So friends cannot visit? Again, this is something listed in the house notebook but no mention of this rule anywhere. Pretty sure that this is also unenforceable.Finally, the notebook includes dire warnings about being kicked out if motion sensors discover an unattended dog or if a sound meter detects volumes above some decibel level. Not creepy at all.
