2709 Old Sugar Road
Durham, NC 27707DEADLINE SET FOR OFFERS: SUNDAY, MARCH 8TH AT 5PM. Homes are rarely for sale on this quiet cul-de-sac street--this is a singular opportunity for a cool house in a wonderful location. Set on a half-acre lot and perched above the street for privacy, the house is flooded with light from the many windows, skylights, and sliding glass doors, all replaced in 2022; high-value ticket items. Interior freshly painted--Trim, ceiling, walls, closets; exterior painted 2023. Fabulous, screened porch with skylights redone in 2022 and extra-large front deck overlooked by trees added in 2021. The back deck off the dining room was replaced in 2025/2026 and is a perfect place for BBQ. Primary bedroom upstairs has its own private loft; downstairs there are three more bedrooms and an additional two bathrooms. Bonus room over the garage is accessible from the house. While the house has had many updates, it has been priced to reflect the need of a new garage door and opener, the age of the roof, some structural repairs, and for the condition of the kitchen. New refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher (2025) give you a great head start in the kitchen--cabinets, sinks, and countertops could use reconditioning or replacement, and the electric oven and gas cooktop do not work. In addition to the excellent price of the home, the seller is offering a $4,000 allowance for the garage door and opener. The washer and dryer are included and were purchased in 2024.
