This beautiful 2.55-acre estate lot - located within the much-sought-after Chapel Hill-Carrboro School District - provides an extraordinary opportunity to bring your own builder and start planning your dream home! Tucked away at the end of a private drive, off Old Highway NC 86, this property offers a peaceful, secluded setting that is surrounded by beautiful, mature hardwoods and pines. This vacant lot is in a terrific location, too: across the road from Lake Hogan Farms and close to the access points for miles of wooded trails. Just minutes from downtown Chapel Hill in one direction and I-40 in the other, the property at 8095 Old NC 86 provides an ideal combination of privacy and convenience. The current owners purchased the land in 2023 with plans to build. As a result, they have done a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of the research needed for the next owner who wishes to build a home here. For example, there is a Preliminary Soil and Site Evaluation, completed by Wood Soil Consultants (WSC), which deemed the property provisionally suitable for a conventional 4-bedroom single-family residence. Additionally, the Orange County Improvement Permit is in place already, with an expiration date of May 7, 2029 - meaning that the next owner of this property will have plenty of time to design their perfect home. All of the documents mentioned here are available in the Documents section of the MLS listing. Please contact either of the co-listing agents (Shannon Kennedy or Tom Heffner) for more details. In answer to the question of why the current owners are selling: after they purchased this pretty property and began their construction plans, they stumbled across a new construction home that checked all their boxes and decided not to build. The owners of this lovely lot considered holding onto it for years to come - but ultimately, they decided to make it available to another lucky buyer. This is the property you have been hoping to find for your new construction project. Bring your architect and your builder and come take a peek!
