Durham, NC 27705This warm, inviting, incredibly livable and peaceful home in an amazing location is simply not to be missed. Tucked into a wooded setting on a quiet cul-de-sac, this distinctive and impeccably maintained contemporary home offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and everyday convenience just minutes from Duke and the heart of Durham. The interior has modern yet cozy aesthetic defined by rich materials and architectural detail. Brick flooring anchors the main living areas, complemented by soaring ceilings with exposed wood beams. The living room's expansive picture windows frame views of the pond and wooded front yard while filling the space with natural light, while skylights above offer ever-changing glimpses of the tree canopy and the sky above. At the front of the home, a light-filled sunroom is perfect for enjoying the surrounding landscape. The kitchen blends form and function with abundant storage in cherry-tone cabinetry and sleek white quartz countertops. Upstairs, three bedrooms plus a bonus room offer flexibility for a variety of needs, along with two full baths. The first-floor primary suite features a large bathroom, generous closet space, stained concrete flooring, and its own deck. The adjoining office adds functional workspace and enhances bedroom privacy from the main living areas. Adjacent to the foyer, a large den easily doubles as a guest space, complete with a cleverly designed sliding door for privacy and direct access to a full bath. Outside, a serene front deck is uniquely bisected by a goldfish pond with two waterfalls. The cable railing creates unobstructed views of the lovely trees in the front yard. An oversized garage with a dedicated workshop area and an additional carport provides space for all of your hobbies. Mature plantings including redbuds, maple, sweetgum, and pine create a layered landscape with year-round interest. The backyard patio is surrounded by a vibrant rose garden and perfect for late night conversations around a fire pit. Beauty here is more than drywall deep. Thoughtful design and long-term investment in efficiency and comfort are woven throughout the home's construction and evolution. A 2009 addition expanded the living space with intention, including a dedicated heat pump and radiant heated floors in the primary suite for year-round comfort. The home was originally designed with passive solar principles in mind, enhancing natural light and energy efficiency. Energy Star qualified, low-emissivity vinyl windows throughout further support comfort, efficiency, and long-term durability. The neighborhood connects to the Al Buehler Trail, which winds through Duke Forest creating an ideal backdrop for peaceful walks or a vigorous run. Multiple grocery stores are less than 10 minutes away, along with easy access to an incredible array of dining options, cultural events on campus and at Durham Performing Arts Center, and all that makes Durham cool. It's an easy drive to Chapel Hill, Research Triangle Park, and Raleigh-Durham International Airport. Come see it today!
