Durham, NC 27701Just a 10 minute walk from Durham's vibrant city center, this vintage Craftsman bungalow offers the rare blend of urban convenience and a peaceful, tree lined neighborhood. Don't let the charming exterior fool you — this Craftsman bungalow opens up to a light filled interior that consistently surprises and delights. From the moment you step inside, the character, the warmth, and the unexpected sense of space create an immediate wow moment. Restored original hardwood floors anchor the home with timeless authenticity. The period wooden fireplace—now enhanced with a gas insert—adds both charm and modern comfort. The primary bath is a standout with classic black and white marble tile, a chic glass enclosed shower, abundant natural light, and beautiful stained glass windows that bring artistry and color into the space. The kitchen channels an Italian bistro feel with white marble counters and upper cabinet storage that highlights both charm and practicality. Outside, a large fenced in yard offers room to relax, garden, or entertain, while excellent off street parking and EV charger adds everyday convenience that's hard to find this close to downtown. And with a Michelin rated restaurant just a short stroll away, the location is as exceptional as the home itself. A rare combination of history, character, and walkability in the heart of Durham.
