1613 Bivins Street
Durham, NC 27707On a sunny corner lot between Lakewood and Forest Hills, this mid-century era Cape Cod blends character, charm, and a prime Durham location. Picture crisp autumn mornings on the front porch, waving to neighbors before starting your day. With a fenced-in yard, new roof and HVAC, and fresh paint throughout much of the home, this one is ready for its next chapter. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, timeless details, and abundant natural light. The vintage-style kitchen brings plenty of charm, and the unfinished basement (with garage) offers tons of storage or workshop potential, while the second floor is brimming with possibility -- perhaps a dreamy primary suite or creative retreat. You're a short stroll to the YMCA, Cocoa Cinnamon, Lulu & Sadie's, and all things Lakewood. Lyon Park, Forest Hills Park, and Rockwood restaurants are just minutes away, and Downtown Durham and Duke are a ridiculously easy hop from home. Whether you're drawn to the vintage character, the friendly neighborhood feel, or the unbeatable location, 1613 Bivins Street is a gem ready for its next person.
