7117 New Light Trail

Chapel Hill, NC 27516

Nestled near the Haw River, this contemporary retreat offers over four acres of privacy framed by mature trees and open meadows. Inside, soaring ceilings with skylights and clerestory windows fill the open living, dining, and kitchen areas with natural light, while warm hardwood floors and built-ins create a timeless backdrop. The main level includes a spacious primary suite with deck access and views of the surrounding landscape, plus two additional bedrooms for flexibility. A hidden loft tucked away in the living room adds a creative bonus space. The separate efficiency apartment—with its own exterior entrance— features professional artist lighting for the perfect studio space or guest quarters. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a covered front porch, screened porch, and two decks designed to take in the wooded setting. With over 2,000 square feet inside and nearly as much outdoor living space, this property is equal parts retreat and gathering place. Centrally located, it offers a rare blend of seclusion and convenience with quick access to Carrboro, Saxapahaw, and Chapel Hill's dining, music, and trails. Upstairs apartment was not permitted and is not included in square footage.
