Property Description
Ideally located just steps from Duke University's West Campus, 614 Swift Avenue is a rare find that combines classic charm with a huge, private 0.53-acre lot. This move-in-ready home is flooded with natural light thanks to huge windows that offer peaceful views of nature outside from every view. Inside, you'll find plenty of character with beautiful built-in shelving and cabinets that provide both style and extra storage. The main level offers over 1,600 square feet of living space, highlighted by a kitchen with granite countertops and a center island that is perfect for family gatherings. With four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. The 600-square-foot finished basement adds a great flexible area for a home office, gym, or hobby room. Outside, the amazing brick patio work creates a perfect spot for entertaining or relaxing in total privacy. It is a unique opportunity to own a large, light-filled property in one of Durham's most popular neighborhoods-you really have to see this one in person to appreciate the park-like setting.
