Adorable Old West Durham! Your cottage awaits, in Durham's favorite walkable neighborhood - Old West Durham. If you appreciate walking everywhere and love historical vibes, come behold this lovingly restored mill house with gorgeous hardwood floors, brand new deck and massive backyard. Sit on the rocking chair front porch — perched high above the street — and look out over the lovely, landscaped gardens — yours and the neighbor's! Bright, spacious rooms abound in this charming package, with two generous sized bedrooms, plenty of hardwood and genuine historical detail. (No cookie cutters allowed!) The big kitchen and eat-in dining area connects by sliding glass door to the nearly 300 square foot deck, which lives like an extension of the house. The expansive backyard, storage shed and under house storage all help this house live large. Plentiful landscaping and gardening beds in backyard and tons of room for endless recreation options. New Roof in 2024 and HVAC replaced in 2019. When we say Walkable, it's legit!! Actual WALK TIMES to some of our favs: 7 mins to Elmo's, Vin Rouge and Harris Teeter; 6 mins to Locopops, Cocoa Cinnamon or EK Powe Elementary School; 10 mins to Oval Park or Joe Van Gogh Coffee Lovingly restored in this century with plenty of charm left from the last. Don't we all hope to look this good at a 100 years plus?
