About This Property

There's something about this home you don't expect...Built in 1880, it holds all the charm of Durham's history - but step inside, and you'd never know its age. Over the years, it's been thoughtfully renovated to feel warm, comfortable, and completely move-in ready. The kind of home where everything just works - while still holding onto a quiet sense of character. The kitchen has been refinished (2025) and paired with brand new appliances (2025), creating a space that feels fresh, functional, and ready for everyday living. Just beyond, the main floor offers a bright, welcoming layout with a cozy living room and a gas fireplace - the kind of space you'll naturally gather in at the end of the day. With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, there's flexibility here - whether you need space for family, guests, or a home office tucked into the upper level. And then there's the backyard - fully fenced (2025) and designed for real life, it offers room to unwind, entertain, or simply enjoy the quiet. A newly poured concrete pad creates the perfect setup for a hot tub, BBQ, or summer evenings under the stars. The detached garage adds even more function, with space for storage, hobbies, or weekend projects. Set in the heart of Durham, this home blends small-town living with everyday convenience - just a short walk to local shops, cafés, and everything this community has to offer.
