About This Home

As of December 2025

Charming 1949 Ranch with Tons of Potential in the Heart of Durham!
This classic 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,131 sq ft of living space on a generous 9,500 sq ft lot. Nestled on a quiet street, 1818 Cecil St features a welcoming screened-in front porch, an unfinished basement perfect for future expansion or storage, and a large fenced backyard complete with a substantial storage shed. The home retains much of its original character and has not been completely updated—offering a rare opportunity for investors, renovators, or first-time buyers looking to build equity. Conveniently located near downtown Durham, NCCU, and major highways, this home is priced to reflect its as-is condition. Don't miss your chance to own a solid home with great bones and room to make it your own! The American Tobacco Trail is immediately behind this lot, so easy to walk out your door and use it.
