3811 Pickett Road
Durham, NC 27705Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch situated on a spacious 0.62-acre lot with no city taxes and no HOA. Still, 3811 Pickett Road is connected to public water and sewer, eliminating concerns about private well or septic maintenance. All personal property can convey via separate bill of sale, creating a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a turnkey primary residence, executive rental, traveling-professional housing option, or investment property. With more than 1,800 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, the home offers an inviting open-concept layout, recycled glass countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generously sized bedrooms. Outside, enjoy evenings around the fire pit, entertain on the expansive patio, or simply relax and take in the privacy and flexibility offered by the oversized lot. Rare for this location, the 0.62-acre parcel provides abundant outdoor space along with potential opportunities for future expansion or additional improvements, subject to buyer verification and applicable approvals. The shared driveway configuration offers a practical advantage as well, with ample on-site parking, convenient access to the rear portion of the property, and the ability to turn around and exit without backing directly onto Pickett Road. Ideally located between Duke University and UNC-Chapel Hill, the property provides easy access to major medical centers, employment hubs, shopping, dining, and recreation. Hollow Rock Racquet & Swim Club is just over a mile away, while nearby trails and natural areas offer abundant opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. With a rare combination of lot size, location, public utilities, and flexibility, 3811 Pickett Road presents an exceptional opportunity in one of Durham's most convenient locations.
