About this home
Tucked just minutes from Elon University and downtown - with sidewalk access from Sunset & Williamson - this updated and beautifully restored bungalow offers flexibility, charm, and serious function. With over 1,500 sq ft, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features two bedrooms on the main level and a private upstairs suite complete with an updated bathroom showcasing Grohe fixtures, tilework, floating mahogany vanity, Ferguson sink and adjustable-height shower head. The upstairs bedroom connects visually to the common area below, adding character and architectural interest. Refinished hardwood floors, arched doorways, fresh paint, updated blinds, and a spacious living room with natural gas fireplace give the home warmth and personality. The kitchen has been remodeled with new countertops, tile backsplash, unique wood shelving, and includes the refrigerator, dishwasher, electric range, washer, dryer, and island. Two 40-gallon water heaters provide added convenience. Need extra space? The ''John Lennon Room'' offers creative flexibility - ideal for storage, hobbies, studio space, or tucked-away office use.
Outside, the property truly sets itself apart. Especially in the warmer months, the backyard is lush, private, and surprisingly serene - plush with mature greenery and wildlife, creating a peaceful retreat that feels miles away from campus life, even though you are just a short distance from Elon University. It is rare to find this level of privacy and spaciousness so close to town. Designed for gathering and entertaining, the outdoor space features a two-tier deck with Japanese char-style accents, a crushed oyster shell ''half'' bocce court, fire pit, partial privacy fencing, and brick walkway. Not one, but two screened-in porches - one off the living room and one off the kitchen - extend the living space and make this home ideal for hosting, relaxing, or simply enjoying the view year-round.
The large two-level wired barn with electricity and lighting provides exceptional storage or workshop potential. Additional highlights include a Tesla charger, new Gas Pak (2025), oversized driveway with parking pad for 6+ vehicles, landscaping, trash screen, and an existing well for irrigation use.
Located in a desirable school district and just minutes to shopping, dining, campus, and the downtown area. Property survey, plat map, features list, and additional information available as part of the listing documents.
