321 Trinity Avenue
Durham, NC 27701OFFER DEADLINE Sunday at 12 pm! An English cottage daydream with a Durham address. Storybook charm and city convenience collide in this stunning 1920s Tudor Revival on one of Old North Durham's most beautiful tree lined streets. This home oozes with original character: chunky moldings, antique European light fixtures, crystal doorknobs, graceful curved banister, and an adorable swooped roofline (bonus: all of the furnishings are available for purchase, too)! Dappled sunlight pours through every window onto recently refinished hardwoods. The updated kitchen is anchored by a wall of windows and opens onto dining and living rooms. Main level bed and bath with private balcony offers flexibility for guests and in laws. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and second full bath have room for everyone. Room to expand and create the primary suite of your dreams. And there's more! 1,100+ square feet of unfinished basement space with high ceilings and limitless potential. Opportune for a future finished guest suite, home office, studio, workshop, or income producing apartment, with the possibility of reopening a former interior staircase to seamlessly connect the spaces. Savor the best of Summer's bounty from established raised beds, sip something special on a porch that dreams are made of, or dine al-fresco and enjoy the swaying limbs of the stately oak tree. This setting feels worlds away, but is just blocks from all the action. Go car free — because Cocoa Cinnamon, the Farmers' Market, and too many good eats to name are within a stroll. This is the kind of home that encourages you to slow down, talk to your neighbors, and fall a little more in love with Durham every day.
