It’s porch season, and this porch is hard to beat. Orange you glad you found it? Set back in the woods on a one-acre lot among the hardwoods, 1429 Davis Road greets you with a massive wraparound front porch made for morning coffee, rocking chairs, and long fall evenings.
This well maintained 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home offers 1,205 square feet and is absolutely move-in ready. The main level has a kitchen with dining space, a living room at the back of the house, and a convenient half bath tucked under the stairs. Both bedrooms and the full bath are upstairs. The windows, roof, and siding have all been replaced over the years. The owner has a real love for orange, and you’ll see it brightening the kitchen and bath. It’s cheerful and full of personality, and easy to keep or adjust to suit your own style.
Out back, the fenced yard is ready for pets and play, with a small side yard and plenty of room for a fire pit in the front or back. The wooded lot keeps yard work to a minimum, so you can spend more time on that porch. No HOA.
Location makes daily life easy, with quick access to I-40 and I-85 and simple drives to downtown Hillsborough, Chapel Hill, Durham, and Mebane.
