Durham, NC 27707Set beneath a canopy of mature trees, this Cape Cod offers a magical backyard experience that's truly one-of-a-kind, along with the convenience of a first-floor primary bedroom and adjacent full bath. Designed with imagination and outdoor living in mind, the multi-level yard features gravel pathways, a built-in hillside slide, garden beds ready for planting, and plenty of space for swings, hammocks, or even a zipline. A charming playhouse/storage shed and covered flex space leave room for creativity to take the lead. Blueberry and raspberry bushes, strawberry barrels, and mature fig and pear trees complete the storybook setting. Inside, you'll find a welcoming living space centered around a wood-burning fireplace, along with freshly painted interiors (2026), updated bathrooms, stainless steel kitchen appliances (2023) including the range, refrigerator, and dishwasher, and a reverse osmosis filtration system at the kitchen sink. The exterior was repainted in 2023, the roof was replaced in 2019, and fresh gravel has recently been added to the driveway. Abundant closet space throughout the home, along with a large walk-in crawlspace, provides exceptional storage rarely found in homes of this size. Outdoor living continues with both a deck and patio, creating multiple spaces to relax, play, entertain, and enjoy the enchanting surroundings. Beyond the property itself, Valley Run is beloved for its welcoming sense of community, neighborly spirit, and proximity to Downtown Durham, nearby universities, and RTP. If you've been searching for a home with personality, functionality, and a backyard that inspires adventure and connection with nature, this Valley Run treasure is one you won't want to miss.
