About this home

Minutes from Duke University, Research Triangle Park, and I-40, this 2011-built townhome pairs a smart layout with a location that works for commuters in any direction. The main floor is open and light-filled — a stone-accented facade and covered porch lead into a living/dining area anchored by a gas fireplace, flowing into a kitchen built for real cooking: island seating, granite counters, and a walk-in pantry. A first-floor half bath makes hosting easy. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and full bath, with two additional bedrooms sharing a second full bath and a dedicated laundry room close by. Smart thermostat and dual-zone HVAC keep the home efficient year-round. The 1-car attached garage adds everyday convenience, while the HOA handles landscaping and sidewalks and unlocks a community pool, fitness center, and clubhouse — low-maintenance living in one of Durham's most connected pockets. 3 bed, 2.5 bath, 1,726 sqft.
