713 Arnette Avenue
Durham, NC 27701Have you been looking for a charming older home in an established neighborhood walkable to downtown Durham? Are you tired of the builder-grade flips and looking for an opportunity to put your own mark on a classic home with good bones? With over 1900 square feet, three bedrooms and two full baths, 713 Arnette is the gem you've been holding out to find! Built in 1910, it's packed with details you love like original hardwood floors, three fireplaces, and built-in bookcases, and it's priced so you can let your creativity breathe new life into this special home. Situated on a quiet street in the Morehead Hill neighborhood, you cannot beat this location: a 5-minute walk gets you a coveted bite from Isaac's Bagels, within 10 minutes you can be in the center of downtown Durham, and you've got priority enrollment at Morehead and Lakewood Montessori schools. Located on a generously sized .21 acre lot (don't miss the driveway - rare for this area!), this property gives you options - maybe you'd like to add a garage? Or an ADU out back? While you figure out your plans, you'll enjoy the sweet front porch and large, flat backyard, complete with mature plantings and two outbuildings for storage.
