Lovely Writer's Retreat and Garden Sanctuary Enjoy the peace and tranquility of this meditative garden sanctuary. Poised on the crest of a hill on a beautiful corner lot in a classic Chapel Hill neighborhood, this well-appointed 3-Bedroom house has everything you need for a fun, family getaway or a relaxing retreat. It's conveniently located near E. Franklin St, UNC Hospital, Kenan Stadium, Dean Dome, and minutes from Whole Foods and various restaurants and bars. Complete with Ping Pong, cornhole, charcoal grill, fire pit, 65" and more!Private yet convenient, this classic Chapel Hill neighborhood has beautiful homes and gardens, and quiet streets for a stroll. But in literally 2 minutes you can drive to Whole Foods (a 10-15 min walk). Trader Joe's and Harris Teeter are also right around the corner, along with tons of restaurants, bars, and shopping. And if you want to head to campus or Franklin street, it's only a 10-minute drive.Please park outside the gate and close all gates behind you. *VERY IMPORTANT* All gates must be left closed at all times! The DEER are out of control in this neighborhood and they WILL come inside and eat all the vegetation if the gates are not shut securely! Thank you for your help in keeping the garden looking gorgeous!No parties. The maximum number of people on the property is 6, so if you have 6 people staying the night you cannot have any additional guests over for a visit. It's a quiet and tranquil sort of place. Thanks for understanding. When checking out, it is SUPER HELPFUL to run the first (maybe only) load of laundry and start the dishwasher before leaving. Don't worry about transferring anything into the dryer; the housekeeper can handle that after your departure. Thank you!
