About this home

Welcome to this well-maintained South Durham gem, where thoughtful spaces, traditional charm, and everyday convenience come together beautifully. An elevated lot offers a lovely vantage point overlooking a quiet, family-friendly street in a secluded, yet proximate neighborhood, while abundant natural light filling the living room and eat-in kitchen. The vaulted living room ceiling and custom built-ins frame the fireplace creating a warm focal point, complemented by granite countertops and black stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, opening into shared adjacent spaces. The thoughtfully designed floor plan features generous rooms, abundant closet space and storage, a dedicated main-level laundry room, and a desirable main-level primary suite with vaulted ceilings and direct access to the deck. The primary bath has a separate tiled shower and jetted soaking tub with tons of communal space and dual basin vanity. Step outside to enjoy a private, fenced backyard with spacious deck and slate patio perfect for grilling or relaxing outdoors. A hidden bonus room tucked away in the attic offers even more flexible space to explore. It's very cool! Freshly painted exterior trim adds a crisp finishing touch. Tucked into a charming neighborhood in sought-after Southwest Durham, this home puts you minutes from Southpoint Mall, shopping, dining, groceries, RTP, RDU, UNC, and Duke. Neighborhood has a communal pool, pond, tennis and playground with low HOA dues. This property has been such an enjoyable home for my sellers who desire its next owner to love it as well as they have!
