A wonderful neighborhood with a walkable urban feel, the community of Southern Village Chapel Hill offers a pedestrian-friendly mix of business and pleasure. Here residents can enjoy “Movies on the Lawn,” a beautiful market square with Weaver Street Market, several shops and delicious restaurants, and some of the friendliest neighbors anywhere. Developed in the early 90’s, Southern Village was a new concept for Chapel Hill at the time. The plan was to build a “new old neighborhood” reminiscent of the way people lived in the early part of the 20th century. Market Street would be reminiscent of the traditional “Main Street,” while homes would have front porches and alleys in the back for garages. Today, Southern Village is one of the most popular choices among Chapel Hill residents.
