Durham, NC 27713Tucked into one of Durham's most desirable established neighborhoods, this beautifully maintained home offers the perfect blend of comfort, character, and thoughtful updates. Nestled among mature trees on a private lot, the setting feels like a peaceful retreat while remaining convenient to Duke, RTP, Southpoint, major commuting routes, and nearby walking and biking trails that make it easy to enjoy the outdoors close to home. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms, tile flooring throughout the remainder of the main level, and abundant natural light highlighted by a custom Pella picture window with built-in roll-away screens. The remodeled kitchen features rich cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, under-cabinet lighting, stainless steel appliances, and a Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher. The inviting family room centers around a gas-log fireplace, creating a warm gathering space year-round. The primary suite includes a beautifully updated bath with granite countertops and a heated tile floor, while additional updates include remodeled powder room finishes, replacement windows, and newer carpeting. Outdoor living is equally impressive with landscape lighting, a lighted walkway, brick patio, and a stunning Japanese maple that provides exceptional curb appeal. Major systems have already been addressed, including a roof replaced in 2021, HVAC replaced in 2019/2020, water heater replaced in 2020, exterior painting in 2020, and numerous crawl space improvements. Storage cabinets in the garage add practical functionality to this exceptionally well-cared-for home. This truly is a rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained property in a picturesque, wooded setting.
