Durham, NC 27712No City Taxes! No HOA! No Restrictions! Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in the sought-after Willowhaven neighborhood, this beautifully updated French Provincial home offers the perfect blend of charm, privacy, and modern convenience. Sitting on nearly half an acre (0.46 acres), this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom property is a true hidden treasure. Love to garden or thinking about backyard chickens? You'll swoon over the incredible outdoor space featuring 9 raised planting beds, a wired shed with a concrete floor, and a spacious chicken coop — fresh eggs at your fingertips (chickens not included)! Inside, the bright and airy open-concept main floor has been tastefully renovated. The kitchen shines with stainless steel appliances — including a brand-new refrigerator — quartz countertops, a deep stainless steel farmer's sink, large island, and stylish updated lighting. Fresh paint throughout most rooms and ceilings adds a crisp, clean feel, and the bathrooms have also been thoughtfully updated. Enjoy your morning coffee on the rocking chair front porch or relax on the tranquil brick patio with stone wall accents out back. The home's updates include a 2015 roof, exterior paint in 2018, some new windows, an HVAC system installed in 2024 and a whole-house water filter. Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to multiple Eno River access points for hiking, fishing, and exploring. You're just minutes from Duke, UNC, area hospitals, and major highways including I-85, 15-501, and 147. Play a round or take a dip to cool off at the nearby semi-private Umstead Pines Golf & Swim Club and enjoy a quick 10-minute drive downtown for dinner and entertainment. This move-in-ready home offers a rare mix of tranquility, location, and lifestyle — with no HOA and low county taxes. Don't miss this one!
