Property Description
TAMARIND
Steeped in history and timeless romance, Tamarind is a rare offering in the heart of Hillsborough’s cherished historic district. Built in 1903 and lovingly preserved over the course of 123 years, this remarkable estate has had only three owners, each serving as a thoughtful steward of its enduring legacy.
Set just moments from the charm of downtown, Tamarind offers effortless walkability to local shops, cafés and restaurants, while remaining a private retreat tucked behind lush, mature landscaping. The main residence is rich with character and architectural detail, featuring soaring ceilings, eight fireplaces, and a seamless blend of historic craftsmanship and livable elegance.
A sense of story carries throughout the home, most notably in the family room, where a chandelier from the North Carolina Governor’s Mansion adds a layer of provenance and distinction. French doors in the primary suite open gracefully to the pool, creating a serene indoor-outdoor connection and a true sense of escape.
The grounds are equally captivating, designed for both quiet enjoyment and effortless entertaining. A sparkling pool, expansive outdoor living areas, and a beautifully private yard create a setting that feels both intimate and inviting. Two separate guest cottages provide exceptional flexibility for hosting, creative pursuits, or extended stays.
Tamarind is more than a home, it is a piece of Hillsborough’s history, thoughtfully preserved and ready for its next chapter.
