    What's special

    High ceilingsClassic front porchMarble tile floorsTwo spacious bedroomsRe-pointing the brick stepsPainting inside and outAmple cabinetry
    You CAN have it all in this wonderfully renovated 1918 cottage close to downtown Durham: great price, convenient location and full renovation of this charming bungalow. The home features high ceilings, a large kitchen with stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry, a beautiful bath with walk in shower and marble tile floors, a living room and two spacious bedrooms. Original hardwood floors were refinished and some additional vintage wood (1910) flooring was laid. All the expensive improvements have been made: they include a new roof (2025), french drains and waterproofing around the perimeter (2026), re-pointing the brick steps and painting inside and out. HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems were all updated in 2022. The backyard is partially fenced. Enjoy sitting on the classic front porch or sit on the covered rear porch while you grill and visit with friends. Many newer and renovated homes are nearby. Restaurants, shops, music venues and DPAC are just minutes away and this home is on a bus line. Come home to the vibrancy of downtown Durham! Contract was terminated due to seller and buyer being unable to reach agreement on due diligence request.
