1021 Parchemin Trail

Chapel Hill, NC 27516

Just 10 minutes from the heart of Chapel Hill lies a place where life slows down - and begins again. Welcome to 1021 Parchemin Trail - a custom estate designed by renowned architect Stephen Clipp, perfectly blending timeless elegance with modern function. Here your days can start with sunlight spilling across the pastures and the quiet rhythm of hooves cantering over the hill. Your morning routine? Coffee in hand, watching your horses graze just outside your window. The main residence evokes the timeless charm of an English Manor, with Virginia Creeper climbing the exterior, stone details, and beautifully landscaped grounds. Thoughtful design touches and natural light are abundant within the home. Soaring 12' ceilings, solid wood doors, wide-plank pine flooring create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The chef's kitchen boasts custom cherry cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a four-burner gas stove, and double ovens. Multiple fireplaces with stacked stone surrounds add rustic sophistication, while large windows frame sweeping views of the farm and landscaped grounds. The primary suite features a spa-inspired bath with polished wood counters, a soaking tub, and antique mantlepiece from a pre-Civil War home. The five-stall barn is a dream for equestrian enthusiasts. Designed by Linda Dreher (built 2000) is constructed of concrete-filled cinderblock with a stucco finish, it offers oversized 12x12 custom stalls, wash stall with hot/cold water and heat lamps, fans in every stall, and direct pasture access. The 120 x 220 foot riding ring is perfect for dressage or jumping. The spacious apartment above the barn is a perfect in-law residence. Nestled on 10 acres (approximately 8 acres of rolling fenced pasture and 2 acres of hardwoods) with a private pond in the coveted Chapel Hill/Carrboro school district, this home is a masterclass in equestrian living.
