Property Description

Tucked against a wooded backdrop in the desirable Burch Kove community, 408 Lena Circle stands out as a rare opportunity. This end-unit townhome offers added privacy, abundant natural light, and a feature no other townhome in the neighborhood has -- a beautifully constructed screened porch. Spanning approximately 2,000 square feet, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home with a 1-car garage combines thoughtful upgrades with a functional open layout. The first floor features an inviting open floor plan with hardwood flooring, enhanced by crown molding thoughtfully added throughout the main level, elevating the finish and creating a more refined feel. The chef's kitchen is designed for both beauty and function, offering extensive cabinetry with custom double roll-out shelves for easy access and storage, granite countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The added roll-out shelving was a deliberate upgrade, maximizing convenience and everyday usability. The adjacent family room is warm and welcoming, highlighted by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace that anchors the space. Large windows bring in wooded views, reinforcing the home's private setting. Upstairs, the owner's suite overlooks the trees, creating a peaceful retreat. The spacious primary bathroom includes a walk-in shower and large walk-in closet, while two additional generously sized bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, family, or work-from-home needs. A versatile loft area adds bonus space perfect for an office, exercise equipment, or reading nook. The screened porch is truly special. Thoughtfully added by the owner and built with a tongue-and-groove wood vaulted ceiling, it feels like an extension of the home rather than an afterthought. As the only screened porch in the neighborhood, it offers a rare opportunity to enjoy outdoor living in comfort while overlooking the woods. Backing directly to trees for privacy, this end-unit location enhances both tranquility and natural light. Residents of Burch Kove enjoy community amenities including a pool, playground, and dog park, and the neighborhood is located in the walk-zone for Seawell Elementary School, Smith Middle School, and Chapel Hill High School, a valuable Chapel Hill convenience. With its rare screened porch, crown molding detail, upgraded kitchen storage, wooded setting, and desirable end-unit location, 408 Lena Circle offers a standout opportunity in Chapel Hill townhome living. If you're searching for a private, upgraded townhome in Chapel Hill with modern finishes and community amenities, this home deserves a closer look.
