About This Home
As of July 2025A rare opportunity to purchase a single-level brick ranch home in the highly desirable Lakewood neighborhood, directly adjacent to Forest Hills. This gorgeous home, built in 1957, has been thoughtfully updated and features a brand new, stunning open kitchen with beautiful hardwood floors.
The layout is incredibly inviting, offering two fireplaces—one in the living room and another in the expansive kitchen area—and a spacious dining room that's perfect for entertaining. You'll also love the beautiful three-seasons room located off the kitchen, which provides a lovely transition to the private backyard with its very own built-in pizza oven.
The family room is a particularly charming space, offering a sense of warmth and sophistication with its mahogany bookshelves and cozy fireplace. It also provides direct access to a beautiful sunroom that overlooks the private backyard.
The peaceful, cul-de-sac location of this home is incredibly convenient, offering easy access to downtown Durham, 15-501, Duke University, NCCU, and Research Triangle Park (RTP).
