About this home

Morning coffee on the screened porch, pickleball with neighbors, and afternoons by the pool, we welcome you to the everyday living at Fendol Farms. Located at 1006 Athena Drive in Durham, NC, this two-bedroom, two-bath ranch pairs the ease of single-level living with the recreation and connection of a well-established 55+ active-adult community. A stone-accented covered entrance sets the tone for an inviting interior filled with natural light, plantation shutters, crown molding, and warm wood LVP flooring throughout the main living spaces. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas make hosting feel effortless, whether gathering around the fireplace or keeping the conversation going while dinner comes together. An expansive kitchen island with room for seating anchors the space, complemented by a gas cooktop, stainless steel vent hood, built-in wall oven and microwave, tile backsplash, generous cabinetry, and pendant lighting. The adjoining dining area offers room to linger over a meal, while a sun-filled sitting area creates another inviting spot to read, relax, or enjoy a quiet start to the day. Extend your living outdoors to the spacious screened porch, where access to the backyard makes it an inviting retreat for a relaxing afternoon. A secondary bedroom provides flexibility for guests or a home office, and a separate laundry room with a utility sink and an attached two-car garage add everyday practicality. Beyond your front door, Fendol Farms offers a resort-style community pool with lap lanes, a clubhouse and fitness center, pickleball and tennis courts, bocce, walking trails, community gardening plots, and a dog park. There are plenty of ways to spend the day without leaving the neighborhood. Community clubs, fitness classes, and social events offer opportunities to meet neighbors, explore new interests, and stay as engaged as you choose. Enjoy a Durham location that keeps exceptional healthcare close and your next adventure within easy reach. Convenient access to Duke University Hospital, nearby Duke Health primary and specialty care in Brier Creek, and WakeMed Brier Creek Healthplex adds another compelling reason to call this community home. Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) is a short drive away, making weekend getaways, extended travels, and visits with loved ones that much easier. With Brier Creek shopping and dining, Research Triangle Park, and downtown Durham also conveniently accessible, 1006 Athena Drive brings together an engaging community lifestyle, access to outstanding medical care, and the freedom to explore beyond your own backyard. Welcome home.
