Description
Rarely available, The Greenlaw House, a stunning, historical estate built in 1922 for Edwin Greenlaw, namesake of UNC's Greenlaw Hall. Designed by Arthur Nash, whose major works include the Carolina Inn, Wilson Library, and Venable Hall, among many other campus buildings contributing to UNC Chapel Hill's reputation as one of the most beautiful college campuses in the US. The current owners and their architect retained the beautiful architectural details, but added the modern updates and features selective buyers require when completing their 2018/2019 addition and renovation. This impressive property now boasts 5586 sq.ft., 4/5 BR's and 4.5 BA's in the main house & includes a large gourmet kitchen, luxurious owner's suite, spacious rooms ideal for entertaining on the main floor, five fireplaces, screened porch, pool with 40'x 19'5" bluestone patio, grilling deck, fire pit, wine cellar, detached garage (with a beautiful exercise room and pool bath), plus an open concept guest house (built in 2001). Total Living Area - 6768 sq.ft. and almost an acre of professionally landscaped front and backyards. It's perfect!
