701 Eva Street
Durham, NC 27701This home successfully combines traditional farmhouse architecture with modern, minimalist design, clean lines, simple color palette, and thoughtful details that create a fresh, updated take on classic rural living. The result is a home that feels both timeless and contemporary without an HOA! Inside, the 4-bedroom, 3-full-bathroom home features an open design that maximizes space and flow. The first floor includes a convenient ensuite bedroom (or multi-purpose room), perfect for guests or flexible living arrangements. The kitchen is equipped with a gas stove and offers an eat-in dining area, while the living room boasts built-in bookshelves for both storage and display. Adding warmth and ambiance, the home includes 2 fireplaces throughout. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a wrap-around fenced yard providing privacy and security. A double-deck porch offers generous room for outdoor entertaining and relaxation, while the large side yard provides plenty of space for gardening, play, or other activities. Located within Durham's vibrant downtown neighborhood, this home places you steps away from Michelin-star dining, the DPAC Theater, co-op shopping, and countless other cultural and culinary attractions. It's the perfect blend of peaceful residential charm with urban convenience, offering the best of both worlds for those who want farmhouse style without sacrificing city accessibility.
