About This Home
Tucked into Durham's beloved Duke Forest neighborhood, this renovated 5-bedroom, 3-bath mid-century modern retreat offers 2,683 square feet of style, space, and just the right amount of magic. Set on a generous 0.69-acre lot with a backyard that backs directly up to Duke Forest, the setting feels like your own private treehouse getaway — only without having to give up coffee, culture, or convenience. Inside, clean lines, thoughtful updates, and warm modern character create a home that feels fresh, inviting, and full of personality. With five bedrooms, there's room to spread out, host, work, create, or simply claim a quiet corner for yourself. Out back, the fun really begins. Sip something sparkly on the screened porch, soak under the stars in the hot tub, or let the peaceful forest backdrop do what it does best: make every day feel a little more enchanted. And the location? A Durham daydream. You're just down the street from Wrightwood Park, and less than five minutes from Duke University, The Nasher Museum, and Sarah P. Duke Gardens — putting trails, art, blooms, and campus energy practically at your doorstep.
