1712 Vista Street
Durham, NC 27701This beautiful renovated Georgian home in Duke Park grabs your attention from the get-go with its deep blue exterior and classically good looks. The scene of a 2019 Gail Crabtree renovation, the current owners have showered good taste onto every square inch of the 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath floor plan. Generously-sized rooms combined with tall ceilings offer clear sight lines for hosting and supervision, and large windows provide a wide aperture for the sun to bake your pup-tatoes and keep your houseplants looking their best. A smart office sits off the living room and could easily be repurposed as a play space or craft room. Transition upstairs to the bedroom level, where you'll find three bedrooms, including a primary suite. We know - it will be hard not to ogle the stylish primary bathroom. An elevated screened in porch delivers panoramic views onto a wooded buffer behind the house, and functions as a perfect overlook for keeping an eye on your chickens, should you choose to populate the included chicken coop. A detached but finished basement room could function as an overflow office, workshop, art studio, or yoga den for those times where you need to be out of view and hearing of any louder or more demanding roommates. The location is a quick bike ride to your favorite local rooftop cocktail bar or the farmer's market, and a short walk to Duke Park to let your dog get its zoomies on while you enjoy some solid people-watching. Don't blink, or you might miss this one.
