Property Description
Nestled in Durham's beloved Duke Park neighborhood, this classic two-story home oozes Southern charm, blending historic character with thoughtful updates in an exceptional location. Enjoy a private entrance off Shawnee Street and easy access to Downtown Durham, Duke University, parks, dining, and major interstates. The spacious first-floor primary suite features soaring cathedral ceilings and an updated private bath with a scalloped-edge vanity and matching sconces. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or home offices. One bedroom is especially enchanting, with built-in bookshelves and access to a private balcony that feels delightfully like a treehouse retreat. Refinished hardwood floors run throughout the bedrooms, living room, and kitchen, adding warmth and timeless appeal, while the updated powder room delights with charming pink marble tile. The kitchen shines with gorgeous new quartz countertops, freshly painted cabinetry, updated hardware, stylish light fixtures, stainless steel appliances, and abundant natural light. Gather around the masonry fireplace in the living room or step outside to the fenced and gated backyard, perfect for kids, pets, gardening, or outdoor play. Tucked behind the home, a quaint brick courtyard strung with bistro lights creates an entertaining space that feels like a summertime escape to the French or Italian countryside. Recent exterior improvements enhance the home's curb appeal, while the low-maintenance brick and vinyl exterior make everyday living easy. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Durham history in one of the city's most cherished neighborhoods, where timeless character and modern comfort come together beautifully.
