Durham, NC 27701In the decade that they've owned it, the owners have poured love and intention into this 1918 Craftsman Farmhouse. They have undertaken an extensive series of thoughtful renovations and system upgrades that blend historic character with modern comfort and functionality. Major infrastructure improvements include the complete replacement of knob-and-tube wiring with new electrical panels and grounding, upgraded HVAC systems for both levels, a Rinnai tankless water heater, enhanced attic insulation and ventilation, and a brand-new architectural shingle roof with full decking replacement. The exterior has paint has been well maintained. Upgraded fencing and gates, and years of professional landscaping enhancements have transformed the yard along with a custom herringbone brick driveway and walkways,. Significant investment was also made below the home with comprehensive crawlspace and basement waterproofing, encapsulation, drainage solutions, and structural improvements. Inside, nearly every room has been elevated with carefully curated finishes and custom details. The kitchen was remodeled with quartz countertops, marble tile backsplash, updated lighting, and premium appliances. Both original bathrooms and the stunning primary suite addition were fully redesigned with luxury materials, Kohler fixtures, custom cabinetry, soaking tubs, and thoughtful storage solutions. Additional highlights include a restored fireplace and original woodwork, integrated smart networking, custom Elfa storage systems, dedicated office and media spaces, surround sound installations, and extensive lighting and plumbing improvements throughout the home. Set on an extra large lot, of over .25 acres, 325 E Trinity is within walking or easy biking distance to so much of what makes Durham Cool, including the Farmers Market, Durham Food Hall, Golden Belt, dozens of spots for a great meal or fantastic cocktail. It's also a quick commute to Duke and easy drive to RTP & RDU via the recently completed East End connector. See it today, and don't miss the tall-ceilinged basement or the detached garage!
