About this home
News Flash! The market spoke, the sellers listened, and a new roof is getting installed! So the next owners of 1009 Rock St will not only get a new HVAC and me as their neighbor, but they'll also get a brand new roof as well! Welcome to the West End, where front porches, friendly neighbors and an incredible, close-to-downtown location make this one of Durham's most vibrant neighborhoods. Fully renovated and move-in ready, this light-filled 4-bedroom, 2-bath traditional offers a bright, easy-flowing floor plan, updated kitchen and a rare main-level primary suite. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms offer plenty of flexibility for guests, work or working out, along with a conveniently located laundry room tucked behind a charming barn door. Out back, the fenced yard is made for enjoying—dine on the new patio, tend the established herbs and fruit trees, or put the brand-new storage shed to work. And then there's the location, with walkability in every direction—to Grub, Isaac's Bagels, Cocoa Cinnamon, Press Coffee, Lakewood Social, Durham Bulls Athletic Park and downtown, with the American Tobacco Trail nearby and easy access to both Duke East and West Campuses. It's the best of Durham living at a more approachable price: a beautifully updated home, a real yard, a main-level primary and a neighborhood where you can walk out the front door and actually be part of the city.
