    What's special

    Fenced yardHigh ceilingsWood-burning fireplaceWalk-out basementOriginal characterLarge lotWall of windows
    Step inside this 1957 ranch and discover the kind of charm you can't fake. Updated where it counts—kitchen, baths, windows, and roof—yet still brimming with original character, it sits on a large lot in a prime spot between Lakewood and Forest Hills. The showstopper? Just beyond the light-filled kitchen and dining room, the mid-century-vibe living room boasts a wall of windows that frame a gorgeous, ever-changing view year-round. Enjoy true single-level living with a first-floor primary suite, or claim the more spacious downstairs primary featuring an updated, Joanna Gaines-approved bath. The walk-out basement is a surprise—bright and airy with high ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace that make the den feel anything but ''basement.'' Two more bedrooms (four total), a full bath (three total), laundry and storage area, plus... shhh... a hidden room complete the lower level. Out back, a generous screened porch overlooks the fenced yard and fire-pit area—perfect for peaceful mornings, relaxing evenings, or hosted events. All this within strolling distance of Cocoa Cinnamon, Lulu and Sadie's, the YMCA, and—if you're feeling adventurous—Downtown Durham. All offers are due by 8:00 pm Sunday, August 17.
