About this house rental
THE HOME
Designed by architect Sophie Piesse and built by Kennedy Construction, this one-of-a-kind contemporary home is the rare premium rental that actually feels like a sanctuary. Immaculately maintained and move-in ready, it offers a striking interior of blonde bamboo, stainless steel, and black surfaces — warm, modern, and flooded with natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors.
The heart of the home is a gourmet chef's kitchen outfitted with a gas stove, high-end appliances, a deep sink with filtered and instant hot water, and a generous walk-in pantry. A pass-through window opens directly onto the crown jewel of the house: a 16×22 screened porch with skylights, where you'll want to spend every morning with your coffee and every evening with friends — there are stand heaters making it a true four-season outdoor living room. A convenient drop zone off the garage entry keeps daily life organized.
The family room anchors the ground floor with a wood-burning fireplace and easy flow to the porch and adjacent patio. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a primary suite that rivals a boutique hotel: vaulted ceilings, two walk-in closets with custom shelving, and a spa bathroom with heated floors, a steam shower, and towel warmers.
Tech and sustainability are baked in: the home is wired for ultra-fast AT&T Fiber and features a Tesla EV charger just outside of the epoxy-floored garage. Dual-zone HVAC keeps every room comfortable year-round. A fenced backyard, in-unit washer/dryer, and whole-house water filtration complete a home that has genuinely thought of everything. HOA fees are covered by the owners.
THE LOCATION
Situated just 3 miles from UNC's central campus and 3.5 miles from UNC Hospitals, this home is perfectly placed for visiting faculty, medical professionals, and families settling into the Triangle. Bike to campus in 15 minutes, catch the bus at the corner, or drive — downtown Chapel Hill and UNC are just 10 minutes away. Downtown Carrboro — with its farmers market, restaurants, and community energy — is a 9-minute bike ride. Two parks are walkable within a mile, and Weaver Street Market is just around the corner.
Families will feel especially at home here: both Carrboro Elementary and McDougle Elementary are within walking distance, , placing you in a top-rated school district. Bolin Forest and Bolin Creek Trail — a beautiful network of forested paths ideal for hiking and biking — are less than a 10-minute walk from the front door. It's the kind of neighborhood where kids can roam and adults can decompress.
RENTAL DETAILS
Available as early as August 1. Our end date is flexible. We'd love to find one family or household for the full term — ideal for a sabbatical, a medical rotation, or a relocation in progress — but are open to month-to-month arrangements for the right tenant. This is a non-smoking home; pets considered on a case-by-case basis. Utilities are not included but we are happy to provide an estimate of our monthly utilities. The home is available furnished, but we are also able to move some furniture out if it would suit you better.
