There was an interesting bit of news recently on home values in Chapel Hill.   The price of new homes sold in Orange County late last year jumped nearly $100,000 compared to median prices for the last quarter of 2005. 

In the fourth quarter of 2006, the median value of new construction homes closing here was $422,000 compared to the 2005 numbers which were $330,000.  These numbers highlight the booming luxury home market in Chapel Hill.  Neighborhoods like Silver Creek, Chesley, Meadowmont and Lake Hogan Farms have beautiful new executive residences filled with amenities.
