The Inn at Bingham School is a National Register of Historic Places estate on more than 11 acres just outside Chapel Hill, North Carolina, with origins dating to circa 1790. Designated an Orange County Landmark, this is a property that has earned its place in history -- and it wears that history beautifully.
The 5-bedroom, 6-bath main residence is warm, refined, and made for gathering. An updated kitchen, generous entertaining spaces, and rooms that feel both grand and livable make it equally suited to quiet family life or full-scale hospitality. A separate guest house provides a 6th bedroom -- ideal for extended family, an on-site innkeeper, or a private suite for honored guests.
Outside, the grounds open into something you didn't know you were looking for. Expansive pétanque courts -- rare, charming, and instantly beloved -- set the tone for afternoons that stretch on purpose. Open lawns, a historic barn, and a silo complete a setting that simply doesn't exist anywhere else in the region.
Previously operated as a bed and breakfast under a Special Use Permit, the property has hosted weddings, elopements, corporate retreats, and private celebrations. The barn and silo present compelling potential for a destination restaurant, farm-to-table dining concept, or signature event space. Minutes from Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Saxapahaw, and Greensboro.
A rare opportunity for buyers seeking a historic home with acreage, a North Carolina wedding or event venue for sale, or a boutique inn near Chapel Hill to make their own. Legacy, lifestyle, and long-term opportunity -- all in one extraordinary estate.
