Welcome to your own private retreat in the heart of North Durham. From the back deck, the wooded backdrop creates the feeling of a mountain escape, bringing both privacy and calm. It's the perfect spot to begin your mornings or unwind at the end of the day. The freshly landscaped backyard now includes clean lines, new steps leading down to a flat lower area, and endless possibilities — picture evenings around a fire pit, a hammock retreat, or even space for a garden shed. It's a unique opportunity to design your own outdoor sanctuary. Inside, the home is equally inviting and completely turnkey. The kitchen shines with white cabinetry, quartz counters, and stainless steel appliances, while the main level features brand-new LVP flooring and a spacious, light-filled living area anchored by a cozy fireplace. Stylish lighting, fresh paint, and sleek black hardware give every room an updated feel. Upstairs, the primary suite offers vaulted ceilings and a refreshed en-suite bath, with two additional bedrooms providing flexibility for guests or work-from-home space. Plush new carpet adds comfort throughout the upper level. Beyond the home itself, the location is unmatched. Just minutes from Eno River State Park, Duke University, downtown Durham, and RTP, you'll enjoy both the serenity of nature and the convenience of the city. This home truly delivers the best of both worlds — a private wooded retreat with every project already complete, ready for you to make it your own.
