About This Property

Gandalf himself could not conjure a more charming cottage. From the period-appropriate color palette to the private front porch, you'll be spellbound from the get go. You'll be counting your lucky stars at the three bedrooms and two full baths, a bit of a rarity for the area. Spend your summer evenings being enchanted by the mature perennial garden, home to all kinds of local flora (peaches!) and fauna (bluebirds!).  An absolutely divine primary bath renovation will provide an alluring retreat at the end of the day. A warm and updated kitchen is ready to support  your culinary wizardry. The floor plan is old Durham at its best, with a magical flow from room to room and nary a hallway in sight. The detached garage is no illusion - storage for bikes and gardening tools will be an absolute breeze. You'll need the bikes for those quick jaunts downtown to enjoy a (witches) brew at one of the many Durham watering holes or to fetch ingredients from the farmers' market. A terraced backyard offers a peaceful spot for you and your crew to hang around a fire pit (or cauldron, if that's your vibe). You've pulled a rabbit out of a hat with this one, so don't let it pass you by!

This 1930s charmer is a real peach! Situated perfectly on a bucolic street with city convenience and sweet, sun dappled privacy. The front porch invites you to sit (or swing) and stay a while. Gorgeous hardwoods, French doors, original moldings, and a restored wood burning fireplace are peachy keen! Two sunny living areas lead you into the heart of the home - an open kitchen made bakers and chefs alike. Modern cabinets, stainless appliances, and loads of prep space! Nothing about this house will have you in the pits - the primary suite is a dream with luxe penny tiled private bath and TWO walk in closets! Gracious secondary bedrooms are flooded with light and the original tile in the guest bath is *chef's kiss*. Enjoy peaceful mornings listening to birds among fig and peach trees and perennial gardens. The sunny screened porch is a perfect place to WFH, and a dry walk in basement add storage and laundry ease. Out back, a large shed (once wired) is ripe with opportunity for a home studio or ADU. Walkable to everything Durham, you can live car-free, but a recently installed EV charger is there just in case! Nothing cobbled together about this one - the home has had years of care and was recently inspected. Don't miss a golden opportunity, this Duke Park beauty is done just right!
