Charming Durham Home with Character Near Duke & Downtown

Welcome to this inviting, large 2-bedroom, 2-bath home that perfectly blends timeless charm with modern updates. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from Duke University and Downtown Durham, this home offers both warmth and convenience in an unbeatable location.

Step inside and you’ll be greeted by beautiful original hardwood floors and spacious, light-filled rooms that reflect the home’s character. The large, updated kitchen is a cook’s dream—featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, abundant storage, and ample counter space for ease of meal prep.

Enjoy the flexibility of two separate living areas, perfect for a living room and dining space, or use one as a cozy den or home office. Off the main bedroom, you’ll find an additional bonus room or private office, ideal for quiet work or reading time.

Outside, relax on the wide front porch or entertain on the private back deck overlooking a fenced yard with mature trees and a detached storage garage/shed.

All this in a prime location, less than 2 miles to Duke Hospital, 1 mile to Duke’s main campus, and 1.5 miles to the restaurants, shops, and energy of Downtown Durham.

Homes with this much character, space, and location don’t come around often. Come see why this one feels so special.

Move-in ready and close to everything!
