Hang your hat and cool off from the thick air this summer inside this cooool 1940s cottage! Sit back and sip iced tea on the rocking chair front porch. (If cold brew is more your speed the neighborhood coffee shop is just a short stroll away!) This absolute gem is on a dead end road, nestled just 7 minutes away from downtown Durham. Full of historic charm, with gleaming original hardwoods throughout, original moldings, and natural light that will make any plant lover squeal! A truly refreshing feel with new paint, recently updated spacious bathroom, and tasteful fixtures. Replacement windows and regularly maintained HVAC help keep those AC bills low! Large living and dining space and ample bedroom sizes. You'll love spending time in the kitchen, that's pretty as a peach! Side door opens into private, fenced back yard with flowering native plants. Have your pick of summer's sweetness from the beautiful garden beds and productive fig tree. Huge basement workshop/studio is partially heated and cooled, gets good light, and has access to the back yard. Enjoy a carless lifestyle - grocery stores, coffee shops, and parks are all walkable within a mile! New roof in 2022, warrantied structural work in 2017, low maintenance vinyl and brick siding, and dry walk in basement storage. Don't linger on this cutie because she'll be gone before the cows come home!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
