About This Home
A rare new construction opportunity on almost 6 wooded acres, minutes from downtown Chapel Hill and Carrboro in the distinguished Greenbrae community. Warm and sophisticated, this luxury farmhouse blends timeless charm with refined, contemporary finishes. Situated in a community of high-end custom homes, 1040 Millbrook Circle enjoys a sense of place and privacy created first by the long sweeping driveway and then enhanced by an inviting brick front walkway and a modern elegant façade. Inside, custom details and artisan-created finishes set a warm, inviting tone. Site-finished white oak floors, a hand-built stone fireplace wall with an antique wood mantel shelf, curated tilework, custom millwork, designer light fixtures all create a warm, elegant living space. These features add a thoughtful counterpoint to clean architectural lines. The Chef's Kitchen features Thermador appliances, an adjacent scullery with pantry, and a large center island perfect for casual gatherings. A guest wing creates the opportunity to provide a perfect in-law or nanny suite. The main level flex-office-playroom-dining offers endless possibilities. Upstairs there are more flexible spaces on the second and third floors, including a vaulted and beamed-ceiling primary BR. Four bedrooms? Yes but there is so much more in this spacious home- including a full ensuite third floor where you can gaze over the tree tops at the rolling hills of Chapel Hill. Multiple flexible work-from-home spaces are generously proportioned; pick your dream: an art studio, playroom, or home theater? The rear screened porch provides a peaceful, spot for morning coffee or evening entertaining. Five+ acres provides plenty of room for your next chapter- a pool or guest cottage? Maybe a studio? The exclusive Greenbrae neighborhood is just minutes from Chapel Hill and Carrboro, placing acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, cultural venues, and top-rated schools within easy reach—offering a tranquil, Zinn-designed farmhouse retreat with bespoke details and superb access to the Triangle lifestyle.
