Property Description
Tucked away on an oversized 1.15-acre lot, this lovingly updated 1955 ranch offers the rare combination of timeless charm, thoughtful modern updates, and an extraordinary connection to the outdoors. With 1,235 square feet, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms, the home lives comfortably with an open, easy flow through the main living spaces and beautifully updated kitchen and baths designed for everyday living. Outside, the property unfolds into a private garden retreat cultivated with care for more than a decade. The fenced backyard is filled with mature plantings, shade gardens, native species, and pollinator-friendly landscaping that create beauty and biodiversity throughout the seasons. A flagstone patio tucked beneath towering white oak and pecan trees offers the perfect setting for morning coffee, outdoor dinners, or quiet evenings under the canopy. For gardeners, growers, and outdoor enthusiasts, this property is truly special. The fenced front garden has been organically maintained since 2014 and includes established drip irrigation along with a mature, fruit-producing Crispin apple tree. Four additional raised beds along the side yard are ready for summer planting, while the backyard features rows of blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry bushes alongside mature fig trees known for abundant harvests year after year. Additional features include city water and sewer, an attached one-car garage, and a detached storage building ideal for a workshop, studio, or additional storage. Perfectly positioned just 2.4 miles from West Point on the Eno and only 5 miles from Duke University, DPAC, Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and American Tobacco Campus, this home offers a unique blend of privacy, convenience, and deeply rooted Durham character.
