**Offer deadline Monday, 6/1 at 12pm** Designed by renowned Durham architect William Sprinkle, this charmer with clinker brick details has been lovingly stewarded by only two owners, both wise enough to preserve unique mid-century features while making upgrades where it counts. Original oak floors, Florida cypress paneling, and two dramatic brick fireplaces blend seamlessly with thoughtful, custom renovations. An entertainer's dream, there's no shortage of spaces to mix & mingle. Keep it formal in the upstairs dining room, or host the best game night ever in the lower-level den (plus bar!) that opens onto your covered patio with outdoor kitchen. Feeding friends has never been easier with the edible landscape your double, 0.54 acre lot provides. The well established garden delivers annual harvests of peaches, nectarines, apples, plums, blueberries, blackberries, elderberries, figs, muscadine grapes, hazelnuts, persimmons, & herbs. A metal roof & solar hot water system add practical perks, while the attached garage/carport multitasks as a workshop & screened porch. Downstairs, the fourth bedroom & third bath create an ideal in-law or au pair suite (or in a pinch, the perfect post dinner-party crash pad!). Not in the mood to host? Luckily your Duke Park locale is just a quick stroll, scoot, or ride away from all things Downtown. You'll love being less than a mile from Omie's Coffee & Little Bull (I'm lookin' at you, Top Chef fans). Architectural pedigree, timeless renovations, garden-to-table living, AND a prime location...what more could you ask for?!
