Durham, NC 27705This house is a captivating piece of mid-century history. Built in 1963, this one story home graces an idyllic lot with frontage on Lake Swannanoa.

The grounds feature a wired shed equipped with an EV charger and a garden shed, raised garden beds bursting with native plantings, and a cozy fire pit with breathtaking lake views. Adding to the home's unique character is an original carriage step stone, thoughtfully repurposed as a tranquil spot for meditation in the garden. New HVAC with Trane 10 year transferable warranty. Minutes from the Indian Trail, Parks, and Duke University and Hospital. Welcome Home!
