About This Home
As of May 2025MOTIVATED SELLER! Darling Durham Dream—Charming, Cozy, and Close to It All! Just 1 mile from Duke Hospital and West Campus, this cheerful brick ranch is bursting with charm, updates, and sunlight! Whether you're a Duke student, traveling nurse, first-time buyer, or savvy investor, this home checks all the boxes.
With over $80K in thoughtful renovations, this 2-bed, 1-bath beauty blends classic character with modern style. You'll love the gorgeous refinished hardwood floors, the bright, airy feel throughout, and a kitchen that shines with new cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The updated bathroom, fresh interior and exterior paint, new light fixtures, and sleek new doors all add to the home's polished vibe.
Need more space? The sunroom is your wildcard—perfect as a dining room, home office, third bedroom, or extra hangout spot. And don't miss the oversized laundry room, perfect for extra storage, gear, or even a mini home gym.
Outside, you'll find a freshly stoned driveway, updated parking area, and a spacious 0.26-acre lot that gives you room to spread out—all just off 15-501 and the Durham Freeway. You're minutes from downtown, Ninth Street, great eats, and local favorites. More of a homebody? Check out the large backyard that's just begging for a cookout or cozy firepit night.
Bonus: a property across the street currently used by the fire department is being removed soon—so the view (and the vibe) is about to improve! Come see it—you're going to fall in love, too. 💛 Open House this Saturday from 1-3 PM!
