Whisk yourself away to your new cozy downtown dream home! A remnant of a golden era in Durham's history, this 1940's craftsman is truly a poster child for the phrase ''They Don't Make Them Like They Used To.'' Owner has maintained historical integrity and charm, while making a few modest upgrades that really make this home a delight. House maintains the original ''good bones'' of old growth timber and plaster framing, traditional heart-pine hardwood floors, iconic craftsman trim work, and wooden porch & brickwork, while adding the comfort of a few modern upgrades. Roof re-shingled, updated bathrooms, stainless & gas kitchen appliances, encapsulated crawlspace, large walk-in basement area, and fenced in backyard. With just enough tree covering and landscaping, this lot feels secluded & private while being just a short walk away from many of Downtown Durham's top destinations. There are no shortage of options within a few blocks; like the Farmer's Market or Durham Food Hall for a bite, Motorco or Pinhook for a show, Durham Central Park, and even walkable to DPAC & Durham Bulls if you want to avoid parking hassle! Or if you're looking for more low key night out connecting with the community, you have Durty Bull Brewing right next door! But fret not, they're very respectful neighbors! You can also put your mind at ease knowing that your new home sits next to some of the best schools Durham has to offer. Such as Watts Montessori, Central Park School, and Durham School of the Arts. So whether you're looking for a quiet, yet accessible neighborhood home for your family, or an investment in one of Durham's hottest markets, this home is perfect for anyone!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
