Welcome to 308 Harkness Circle, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Durham's sought-after Carillon Forest community — where the ease of one-level living meets the serenity of wooded surroundings and the unmatched convenience of a central location.
The first thing you'll notice is the peaceful setting. This home backs up to Army Corps of Engineers land and HOA-managed green space, offering a rare sense of privacy and connection to nature. It's the kind of place where you can sip your morning coffee on the screened-in porch, listen to the birds, and feel like you've escaped — without ever leaving the city.
But what makes this home truly special is how *easy* it is to live here. Everything is on one level, and every detail has been thoughtfully upgraded to create a low-maintenance, move-in-ready experience. The roof was replaced in 2020, and a new HVAC system was installed in 2021 — all the big-ticket items are done. With Tesla Powerwalls and solar panels, the home stores and generates its own energy, giving you long-term savings and a more sustainable lifestyle. You'll also enjoy clean, fresh water thanks to the whole-house charcoal filtration system, and a fully encapsulated crawlspace with a dehumidifier that protects your home from the ground up.
The screened-in back porch is a true highlight — featuring EZ-Breeze 3-season paneling and durable Trex flooring, it's a cozy spot to relax year-round, surrounded by trees and natural light.
And while it may feel tucked away, the location is incredibly central. You're just **8 minutes to Duke**, **17 minutes to UNC**, and **9 minutes to the nearest grocery store** — giving you quick access to both Durham and Chapel Hill. Whether you're commuting to campus, heading to a favorite restaurant, or running errands, everything is within easy reach.
At 308 Harkness Circle, nature, comfort, and convenience come together effortlessly. It's a home where you can settle in, slow down, and enjoy all that life in the Triangle has to offer — with nothing left to do but move in and start living.
