About This Home

As of June 2026

Tucked away among the trees, this charming 3 bedroom home offers something truly rare -- the peace and privacy of a wooded escape within the city limits. Nestled on nearly one acre, the surrounding trees create a sense of intimacy that makes you feel immersed in nature, with birdsong as your backdrop and privacy all around.
Inside, the comfortable 1,600 plus square feet is filled with natural light pouring through generous windows, giving every room a bright, airy feel that keeps you connected to the beauty outside. A wood burning fireplace anchors the living space with warmth and charm, making it feel just as inviting on a crisp fall evening as it does on a sunny afternoon. The home blends modern updates with original character and the newly renovated bathroom is a true standout -- featuring gorgeous tile work that strikes the perfect balance between fresh and timeless. With a new HVAC system installed in 2022, you can settle in with confidence knowing the big stuff is already taken care of.
Step outside and the property comes into its own. The new deck sets the stage for slow mornings and easy evenings. With a backyard this big, the possibilities feel almost endless. The custom built shed, chicken coop and garden beds make this an ideal setup for anyone drawn to a more grounded, connected way of living.
Whether you find yourself tending the garden as the morning light filters through the trees, gathering around a crackling bonfire as the stars come out, or watching kids and chickens alike roam freely through the yard, every corner of this property invites you to slow down and soak it all in.
Close to your Durham favorites, the central location puts you within easy reach of Southpoint Mall and everything the Triangle has to offer. Commuters will love the quick access to RTP and I-40 -- and Chapel Hill and Cary are just minutes away for dining, shopping, and entertainment. It's the best of both worlds -- a quiet, nature-filled sanctuary with the energy and convenience of the city right at your doorstep.
