Hi. I'm Marianne Howell-Wright. South Grove is a new neighborhood in Chapel
Hill with houses that are in about the $600,000 to $800,000 price range.
It's interesting because last year, they put the roads in. I've been
waiting around to see houses being built and they just weren't happening. I
finally noticed some activity in the neighborhood and checked with one of
the agents that worked for the builder's company, and she told me that
Chapel Hill is so strict; they had all the plans developed for South Grove,
that they've already built in Raleigh, John Wieland is the builder.
It turns out that the houses were too tall. They had to put off starting
those houses for 7 months while they redesigned them and engineered them to
be not quite so tall and fit in with the town's height requirements.
There are only 26 houses in the neighborhood, and I think they're on about
39 acres. It's a really good location because it's right across the street
from the Southern Chapel Hill Park. South Grove is also just about 1/4 of a
mile from Southern Village, so you're really close to the Lumina Theater,
Pazzo's Restaurant and Pizza, the little shops, doctor's offices. Really,
it's a great location in that sense. You're also right near the Chatham
County line, so the brand new Walmart is right down the street. The town of
Chapel Hill doesn't allow big box stores.
The neighborhood is really pretty. The roads are 1/2 -acre to 1-acre, with
mostly smaller pines and hardwoods. If you're interesting in a big house in
the Chapel Hill School District, this is something to check out.
This is Marianne Howell-Wright, with Triangle Area Real Estate in Chapel
Hill, North Carolina. If you made it this far, I have to tell you, that I
did this on my cell phone, so I probably won't do that anymore and I'll go
back to my regular camera. Thanks for watching.
