Nestled in the woods, this beautiful & spacious mid-century masterpiece features large windows, hand-selected furniture, and original art. Enjoy the outdoor space, too — gas grill, big deck, front patio, and babbling creek. Sleep in and stretch out in the king beds. Cook a meal in the fully stocked chefs kitchen w/gas range, and eat around the giant marble table (seats 9). Fast WiFi for work-from-home, Sonos Stereo system, 2 TVs. 10 mins to UNC, 5 mins to Whole Foods. Not your typical Airbnb!

The entire Mid-Century house — designed by architect Goforth — sits on a wooded acre that overlooks a creek in a natural setting. The one-level home wraps around a central courtyard and large Japanese maple tree. All 3 bedrooms have really cool king bed frames with great mattresses and superior linens. Massive living room, a formal dining room, a breakfast nook, and a fully stocked kitchen. Weve thought of everything. You know how some Airbnbs are sparsely decorated and supplied? Not this one. As a recent guest wrote in their review, each and every room is comfortable and well decorated. This is not your typical Airbnb!

With Fiber internet (404+ MBPS), a 65-inch Sony TV w/ Apple TV, and Sonos stereo system throughout, its an entertainers dream. Perfect for working from home or simply relaxing by yourself or with family and friends. And if quiet time is what you crave, turn off the electronics, and sit in one of the many rooms (with 4 couches!) to read, relax, and put your feet up. Or draw a hot bath, light a candle, and enjoy being pampered.

LIVING ROOM
The large living room features a wrap around couch from Room and Board, Moroccan rugs (bought during the hosts travels to Marrakech), live plants, and (hosts) eclectic book collection. 65 Sony TV with Apple TV for Netflix, Hulu, Prime, HBO, etc. (No cable.) Most apps are already installed with profiles loaded for your viewing enjoyment.

DINING ROOM
The spacious dining room is appointed with a large marble dining room that seats 9! Perfect for working from home, having a casual meal, or hosting a dinner party. With solid pine paneling and the home’s second brick fire place in this room, the dining room is elegant and rustic at the same time. Open the slider back onto the back deck, or just take in the view of the trees from the large windows. Watch carefully and you might catch a deer or even a red shouldered hawk in the backyard!

EAT-IN KITCHEN
The galley kitchen features a gas range and new stainless steel fridge with ice maker. Fully stocked with spices, pots and pans, etc. and everything youd need to make a gourmet meal from home. (Or relax and have your food delivered!) Another smaller marble dining table with Eames chairs (design heaven continues!) sits just off the kitchen for casual meals. This space also includes a leather couch, perfect for relaxing with your morning coffee or talking with family and friends who are busy in the kitchen.

MASTER BEDROOM
The spacious master bedroom features a king bed with luxurious linens, hand-picked art, and a small seating area. The linens, art, and textiles in this room are reminiscent of California, where Erin, your host, spent many years. The Master has access to a pass-through bathroom that also opens to the kitchen. This bathroom has a walk-in shower with upgraded rainfall Delta shower head. The vaulted ceiling and transom window overhead bring in lots of light and overhead space for a lovely showering experience. Shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are all supplied for your use. Lots of very hot water for those who care!

SECOND BEDROOM
The second, smaller bedroom features a California king bed in case anyones tall and needs extra room to stretch out. The closet has a dresser. This room also has a Roku TV for those who like to watch TV from bed.

THIRD BEDROOM
The third bedroom is large with a lovely view of the backyard. Also features a West Elm bed frame with king mattress and luxurious linens and down pillows. This bedroom also has a couch for morning lounging and curtains you can draw if you want to sleep in. Some mornings, deer and even hawks and owls play in the back yard near the creek. The indoor/outdoor feel is not one you often get.

THE MOON ROOM
A small seating area sits off the kitchen, where youll find another luxurious couch (this one from Resource Furniture) and a collection of magazines for reading and lounging.

SECOND BATHROOM
The second bathroom has a combination tub and shower. Both bathrooms have bidets.

OUTDOOR SPACE
The large deck out back connects the living room and dining room and has bench seating throughout. Walk off the deck and down to the creek. Gas grill also available!

You’ll receive a door code for self-check-in. Arrival instructions will be sent the morning your reservation begins.

You’ll have the whole house to yourself. I’ll be available by text to assist with any questions or concerns you may have during your stay.

Erin's home is a Chapel Hill classic. Tucked into the woods in a beautiful neighborhood with a gorgeous lake nearby, minutes from campus, shopping, restaurants and more, it's a perfect location for anyone looking to stay like a local while visiting Chapel Hill. We loved how it was filled with crystals in every room, had cool, comfy furniture and a beautiful, secluded property while still being close to everything. Erin is a super responsive, hospitable host.

My family and I met in Chapel Hill to spend a few days together to celebrate my father's birthday. I fully intend to return just to stay at Erin's place again. It's a vacation within a vacation. Nestled into forest surroundings but with all the charm and comforts of a modern home, Erin's house is a perfect retreat for someone looking to vacation in Chapel Hill.

Erin’s home was immaculate, the setting was serene & peaceful. It was close to everything you could want or need, the setting was like a park, the trees were speaking to us & the leaves we’re dancing as they fell. We were blessed to see the hawk soaring above & upon our leaving we were amazed to see a family of 8 deer in the front yard. When our student graduates we will def be returning if available. Thank you again Erin for a wonderful stay, your home far exceeded our expectations.

We stayed at Erin's house for a week and really felt comfortable there. It is truly a 1970s gem full of mid-century charm and huge floor to ceiling windows that let in a ton of light and beautiful views of the woods it sits within. Erin has decorated with modern mid-century furnishings and everything had such good vibes and energy. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything needed for a longer stay and then some. We walked around the neighborhood several times and enjoyed the tree views and sidewalks. A big bonus is the house is 5 minutes away from major shopping like Whole Foods, but like much of Chapel Hill you feel like you're in a wooded getaway and not a big city. The only little thing I'll mention is that AT&T wireless has no signal at the house, but Erin has super fast WIFI and we were able to make WIFI calling with no issues (and worked remotely too) and it wasn't a problem for us, but if that's important to anyone I wanted to mention it. We would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay at Erin's place very much - peaceful, tranquil, wooded surroundings yet very close to UNC and easy access to Durham, Southpoint, etc. The decor and mid-century vibe was amazing - we loved waking up to views of the woods and the tasteful design. I highly recommend a stay at Erin's property.
