Property Description

Let's get acquainted with the Gimghoul neighborhood, developed on a prominent bluff and a sacred spot to the 1889 secret student society known as the Order of the Gimghouls. The Gimghouls bought 94 acres surrounding the bluff, built the Castle and subdivided 34 acres. Gimghoul is the first neighborhood developed after the original village of Chapel Hill; street names reflect romantic medieval mythology of the Gimghouls; its homes are impressively iconic with friendly sidewalks and great gardens. Glandon Drive was named for Glandon Forest which is now Battle Park with hiking trails and historic Forest Theatre.

Gorgeous, gracious 220 Glandon Drive is a Flagship of the neighborhood. Its front yard enjoys beautiful natural private views of 90+ acre Battle Park in Winter, Summer, Spring and Fall. Its back yard is a haven for entertaining and relaxing with over 2,000 square feet of patios, porches and plenty of parking (a rare commodity in downtown Chapel Hill!). Its vintage stone cottage adds a sweet spot for guests, separate quarters for study, options for she-shed/man-cave, perhaps a valuable apartment/office.
This home is one of Gimghoul's early estates, built in the 30s for Frances and Marjorie Bradshaw. Each of 220 Glandon's owners has taken great care to preserve its Colonial Revival roots yet add new personality to its impressive presence. Current owners engaged Belk Architecture and Tyson/Lewis Ventures to completely renovate the existing home and brilliantly conceive, create and catapult the property Into this century with user-friendly flair and fine finishes. It is an entertainers dream yet extremely comfortable for day-to-day life. Delightful gardens and landscape designed by renown Caroline Siverson add color and softness to mature trees and greenery.

The interior and exterior features of 220 Glandon are endless. Notable Interior Features: the main level is designed for light-filled living and fun and flawless entertaining..You'll love the semi-circle windowed sunroom/funroom (play pool, do a puzzle of Gimghoul Castle and have some fun) which connects to the lovely living room with its double-sided reclaimed French marble fireplace, the delightful dining room with one-of-a-kind, beautiful hand-painted wallpaper, the well-equipped bar area that adjoins dining, patio and kitchen, the perfectly designed Tom Loter kitchen with Bo Taylor cabinets and handsome granite counters plus great connection to breakfast lounge and cozy family room with fireplace,. The second level hosts a peaceful primary en suite bedroom with three custom closets, original hardwoods, soaking tub with an everlasting long view of Battle Park.Two additional bedrooms grace this floor; the terrific third floor can be bedroom, playroom, office, library; Lutron lighting and whole house sound system add pizazz to living the good life on Glandon. Notable Exterior Features: There is no better location than the .73 acres overlooking 90+ acre Battle Park offering privacy and beautiful elevated views; custom-lit curated outdoor terraces, Pennsylvania bluestone patios, classic stone and brick walls, impressive Ipe pergola, enormous concrete paver parking area graced by two separate custom one-car garages, copper roof and scuppers over sunroom/funroom, copper gutters and chimney caps, and let's not forget the quintessential stone cottage surrounded by some of the prettiest peonies in town. So much to savor and experience--A CHAPEL HILL MUST-SEE TO BELIEVE.
