About 1020 Burning Tree Drive
A rare modernist home on nearly an acre in The Oaks, offering distinctive architecture, thoughtful updates, a flexible private suite, and a professional-level pickleball court in one of Chapel Hill's most established neighborhoods. Inside, exposed beams and warm wood ceilings preserve the home's original character, while renovated bathrooms and major recent improvements—including a new roof, two new HVAC systems, new water heaters, and an upgraded electrical panel—add modern comfort and peace of mind. A second story, fully permitted addition above the garage creates a separate upper-level suite while remaining connected to the home. Accessed from the kitchen by its own staircase, it includes a private entrance, bedroom, full bathroom, and office—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, a home office, or creative space. Outside, the professional-level pickleball court is the standout feature, set within a large, level yard with plenty of additional space for entertaining, play, and outdoor living. The court has hosted world-class players including Ben Johns and Tyson McGuffin. Located just around the corner from Chapel Hill Country Club and minutes from Trader Joe's, University Place, UNC, Duke, and I-40, this home offers a combination of character, flexibility, space, and amenities that is difficult to replicate in Chapel Hill.
