Huge price improvement! Here is your chance to renovate where neighboring homes are selling over a million. Steeped with history, this 1925 home is full of charm and character affording you a one-of-a-kind opportunity to live right next to Duke University's east campus. This location can not be more convenient. It is a short distance to the restaurants and shops of 9th Street and downtown Durham. Blending with the iconic architecture of Duke's campus, the home's exterior walls, as well as its fireplace, showcase the same University ashlar stone, all sourced from the local quarry. A new roof, furnace, and gutters were added in 2021. Charming alley parking lines the private backyard and one car garage. So much potential. Don't miss this opportunity!
