Home for sale - Governors Club

Showings Start on Friday 3 /13 !This architecturally distinguished estate within Governors Club offers over 8,300 square feet of light-filled living with elevated golf course views and exceptional privacy. Designed by William Hirsch and built by BRW Builders, the residence reflects European-inspired architecture defined by timeless proportion and understated elegance. A soaring 14-foot coffered ceiling crowns the dramatic living room, where a bowed wall of windows frames long-distance views of the green and opens to a private terrace--an ideal setting for quiet mornings or evening gatherings. While generous in scale, the home is thoughtfully composed to feel inviting and comfortable, with defined living spaces that balance openness with architectural integrity. The chef's kitchen and window-wrapped keeping room form the heart of the home, featuring Taj Mahal quartzite, dual work areas, premium appliances, and terrace access--equally suited for daily living and effortless entertaining. An ELEVATOR provides seamless access to all three levels, including the private primary retreat with spa-inspired bath, expansive dressing rooms, and a wall of windows overlooking the grounds and golf course. A secondary bedroom suite is located on the same level. The walk-out lower level creates a resort-like extension of the home, complete with a custom birdseye maple bar, glass wine display, stone fireplace gathering room, screened porch with fireplace, and a private ensuite guest retreat with direct access to the saltwater courtyard cocktail pool and landscaped gardens--creating a setting that feels both refined and relaxed. A fully appointed guest apartment above the garage, offering living area, kitchenette, renovated bath, and private bedroom, provides exceptional flexibility for extended stays, multigenerational living, or private office use. Set on approximately three-quarters of an acre within Chapel Hill's premier gated golf community, Governors Club offers 24-hour security, championship golf, tennis, swimming, fitness, dining, and an active social calendar--just minutes from UNC, Duke, and RTP. Private. Sophisticated. Enduring. A rare opportunity to own one of Governors Club's most architecturally distinctive and inviting estates--one that would be extraordinarily difficult to recreate today at this offering.
