Property Description

Westside of Westwood. This isn't your typical MLS ''light-filled'' commentary. This is what living in the light actually feels like. An architect-designed 1960s retreat, 414 Westwood sits tucked into one of Chapel Hill's most organically cool neighborhoods -Westwood- where glass doors and windows frame trees so completely, it feels like you've left town. And yet, UNC and ''uptown'' are just a short walk away. Set quietly on the west side of the neighborhood and nearly hidden from the street, the layout is effortlessly smart: 2,300 square feet across two levels that balance openness with privacy. The main level opens to a proper foyer and unfolds with a wood-burning fireplace, built-ins, and walls of glass overlooking layered trees that pull the outside in. Finished-in-place hardwoods ground the space, while custom cherry cabinetry flows from the kitchen into the primary bath--an intentional detail that feels both timeless and warm. The primary suite lives on the main level, with radiant heated floors and thoughtfully designed custom closets. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms each offer en-suite baths and private exterior entrances. One easily functions as its own apartment--with kitchenette, den, bedroom, and dedicated laundry--ideal for guests, in-laws, au pairs, income potential, or a little teenage independence. Outdoor living here is layered. A deck spanning the width of the home floats among the trees -winter sunsets or summer privacy, both a treat. An enclosed courtyard off the dining room, complete with a working fountain, creates a second gathering space, while the lower level offers yet another patio and fountain - each one its own quiet retreat. And the landscaping... the photos don't quite capture it. Native plantings and flowering trees surround the home, with pebbled paths weaving through and creating a sense of privacy that holds year-round. It's less backyard, more sanctuary! Covered parking with two adjacent storage areas keeps life easy. One is perfect for room for bikes, gear, gardening, while the other can serve as an efficient shop for hobbies or projects. Recent updates include roofs, two furnaces, Hunter Douglas motorized blinds, a refrigerator, and a washer and dryer. This is a home for people who notice design, value flexibility, and want both privacy and proximity. A Westwood classic with a Westside soul.
