14 Gleewood Place

Welcome to a home that balances the cozy charm of a traditional Cape Cod with a surprising, modern openness. Tucked away on a quiet, wooded cul-de-sac in Durham's established Penrith community, 14 E Gleewood Place is a sanctuary of privacy that keeps you connected to the heartbeat of the Triangle. Step inside to discover an interior that defies expectations. A dramatic architectural feature defines the heart of the home: a second-story walkway that bridges the upper level, overlooking the kitchen and living areas below. This vertical volume creates a unique sense of connection and airiness, making the home feel spacious and inviting without losing its cozy character. Renovations have brought this 1980s gem firmly into the modern era. The updated kitchen features contemporary finishes that blend style with functionality, while the cohesive, modern flooring guides you through the main level. The bathrooms have been tastefully refreshed, ensuring this home is truly move-in ready. Beyond the aesthetics, this property offers the ultimate luxury: peace of mind. The ''big ticket'' items have already been handled, with a new roof and HVAC system installed in 2018. You can settle in immediately, focusing on making memories rather than managing repairs. Outside, the 0.37-acre lot offers a private, wooded backdrop perfect for quiet mornings or evening relaxation. Best of all, with no HOA, you have the genuine freedom to make this property your own. Despite the serene setting, the location is an academic and professional powerhouse. Situated just one mile from I-40, your commute is effortless. You are perfectly positioned within 20 minutes of the region's top universities—NCCU, UNC-Chapel Hill, and Duke—making this an ideal home base for faculty, staff, or grad students. Plus, with The Streets at Southpoint just one exit away and RTP only minutes away, you are at the center of it all! Whether you are seeking your first home or a strategic investment, 14 E Gleewood Place offers the perfect mix of character, condition, and convenience.
