About this property

Quiet, elegant cottage just steps from downtown Pittsboro—minutes to Jordan Lake

Art-filled with a boho feel, this home sits in a grove of cedars, feeling secluded and restful, but Main Street, filled with shops and restaurants, is just two short blocks away. Vintage touches and charm for days! Fully appointed Chef’s kitchen, designated work space, sunlit den that will have you curling up with a book or a glass of your favorite beverage. Have coffee on the front porch, over looking the cedar grove, or enjoy the secluded back deck.

Take a stroll through the historic cemetery across the street or enjoy one of the many local restaurants and breweries only steps away.
Fearrington village and Chapel Hill are just 20 min up the road, and 30 min to the popular Triangle. Jordan Lake recreation area is a short 15 min away and has beaches and hiking trails, as well as boat launches and great fishing.

Sister Weekend

Two of my sisters and I enjoyed a most relaxing and quiet long weekend together. We have Sister Weekends yearly and this was one of the best short term rentals ever. We strolled the quiet neighborhood and explored the old cemetery across the street. We browsed the shops on Hillsboro St. and ate at a few local restaurants. Our host Lindsay was absolutely percent the best. We could not think of one single thing we needed that wasn’t provided. Five stars all the way.

Senior Graduation Trip

We took our grandson and his best friend to the US OPEN Golf Tournament at Pinehurst and stayed here in Pittsboro. We had a lovely stay at a lovely property. Very well appointed with everything you need for cooking and a comfortable stay. The cottage was exceptionally clean and comfortable and located in a very quiet area. We were very close to restaurants and a grocery store and anything else we needed. The host, Lindsay, communicated with us from the time we booked until after we departed. She was kind, knowledgeable and helpful with all our questions and requests. She even provided farm fresh eggs for our breakfasts. We really enjoyed our stay and I wish we could have stayed longer just to enjoy the cottage and the town of Pittsborro. I highly recommend this property!

Don’t Miss this Gem!

I cannot say enough great things about this cute little cottage! Everything was absolutely perfect. All instructions were clear, communication was excellent and the added bonus of farm fresh eggs was the best! Plenty of room for our family to be together. Located within walking distance of Havoc brewery, S/T Soda Shop (for a great lunch and old fashioned ice cream) and several other cute shops. This place was complete with all the extras you could ask for, great yard to visit or play, equipped kitchen, laundry unit, and great front porch for morning coffee. Will definitely stay there every time I’m in town.

A great place to land

This is a fantastic place to stay. Minutes from downtown you can walk. Clean, comfortable, homey We were thrilled to find a place close to our children that beats hotels much further away. Will hopefully be able to return soon.

Pittsboro reunion

We visited our son's family in Briar Chapel for his 40th Leap Day birthday. Juniper Cottage was beautifully appointed with lovely artistic details. The kitchen was well equipped and the cottage was immaculate and very clean. We hope to come again and stay in the Juniper Cottage!

Perfection

Weekend trip to the area. This home was perfect. Located off the road in a woodsy setting, close to downtown with the quaint little shops and restaurants, within 20 minutes of Chapel Hill and 30 to 40 minutes from the Raleigh airport. The home is extremely clean and set up with everything. You need all the way down to Farm fresh eggs for breakfast and a variety of coffees. The host is accommodating and always accessible but everything exceeded our expectations and we had no reason to bother her. Thank you for your hospitality.

Cozy Cottage with Lots of Extras Included

The house is absolutely perfect and was just as described! The owner had coffee (and everything to go with it), fresh eggs, and any toiletries you could need available to make for a fantastic stay. We had plenty of room for our family of 4 plus my in-laws. The kids loved the bunk room and the slide in the backyard. If we are ever back in the area we would not hesitate to stay at the cottage again. 😁 10 out of 10 Recommend!

Cutest cottage and most fabulous host!

This is such a welcoming and outstanding stay!! The cottage was homey, so well decorated, included items we may have forgotten, had delicious fresh eggs waiting for us, and so many thoughtful touches. It’s a few blocks to a brewery and restaurant and a place we can’t wait to return to! The host is so wonderful and helpful!

Lovely and charming!

Juniper Cottage was better than anticipated. The owner was extremely attentive and left wonderful notes about anything and everything we would have questions about. Everything was well appointed and we didn’t want for anything. Farm fresh eggs, and fresh ground local coffee in the kitchen. Beautiful soaps, and make up towelettes with all the toiletries needed in the bathrooms. Artsy and welcoming decor and comfortable beds and bedding. Quiet neighborhood. A hidden gem!
