Description of 404 Northside Drive, Chapel Hill, NC 27516

Tucked into Chapel Hill's Dogwood Acres neighborhood, 404 Northside Drive offers the charm, privacy, and convenience buyers hope to find this close to UNC, UNC Hospitals, Southern Village, and major commuter routes. This brick home is set on a hillside lot that backs to woods, creating a peaceful sense of separation from neighboring homes while still being just minutes from daily essentials, trails, parks, restaurants, and shopping. Inside, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a comfortable, functional layout give the home a warm and inviting feel. The kitchen was updated in 2023 with new cabinets, granite countertops, Frigidaire appliances, and new flooring. A half bath was also added in 2023, along with a new washer and dryer, new bathroom flooring, gutters, a French drain, and a new septic tank. Additional improvements include a new patio and heat pump in 2024, plus a freshly re-graveled driveway in 2026. The location is a major highlight. Less than 10 minutes from UNC and UNC Hospitals, about 1 mile from Route 501, and under 2 miles from Route 54, the home offers easy access to Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Durham, and surrounding areas while still feeling tucked away. Look down the street toward Smith Level Road, and you'll find a setting that feels more relaxed than expected this close to town, with nearby open land, a cattle farm, and horse stables contributing to the neighborhood's character. Outdoor lovers will appreciate nearby access to Fan Branch Trail, Morgan Creek Trail, Merritt's Pasture, and Southern Community Park. Southern Community Park offers a dog park, playground, paved walking paths, picnic area with grills, disc golf, an inline hockey rink, basketball and pickleball courts, soccer fields, and a fitness course. Southern Village is also close by, with restaurants, shops, coffee, gelato, a movie theater, a local market, seasonal events, outdoor movies, and live music. Located in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools district and with no HOA fees, this home offers an appealing combination of updates, character, convenience, and neighborhood charm. A rare opportunity to enjoy a wooded setting, a connected Chapel Hill location, and easy access to some of the area's most loved amenities.
