    What's special

    Cozy gas log fireplaceFreshly painted wallsRoomy closetSun-filled end unitLight filled open layoutDurable lvp flooring
    Location! Location! Location! Discover the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and convenience in this beautifully maintained two bedroom end unit townhome, ideally situated in the sought after, tree-lined community of Forest Oaks. Enjoy an unbeatable location less than two miles from Duke University and Duke Hospital, five miles from Downtown Durham, and eleven miles from UNC-Chapel Hill and the UNC Medical Center. Everyday shopping essentials are only minutes away. Easy access to major highways--and the peaceful trails of Duke Forest. Set in a uniquely private position within the neighborhood, this sun-filled end unit has only two adjacent homes sharing the private parking area and grassy spaces along the side and back of the property. It's an ideal setting for pet owners or anyone seeking extra privacy and quiet living. Perfect for those who value low maintenance living, the HOA provides exterior upkeep, full lawn care, and access to the community clubhouse and pool. The recently installed fiber cement siding and new roof in 2023 offer added peace of mind. Inside, the main level welcomes you with freshly painted walls, durable LVP flooring, and a light filled open layout that includes a spacious living and dining area with high ceilings and cozy gas log fireplace. A flexible main floor bedroom also functions beautifully as a home office, exercise room, or guest space and is conveniently paired with a full bathroom. With newly added Google Fiber lines in the community, working from home has never been easier. Upstairs, the expansive second floor bedroom serves as a peaceful retreat featuring abundant natural light, a roomy closet, and its own private full bath. Throughout the home, appliances, fixtures, and finishes have been meticulously maintained and remain in excellent condition. The term ''end unit'' really does not describe how inviting this home truly is. Why settle for the hemmed in, narrow view of the average townhome surrounded on both sides by other units instead of windows that provide access to vistas and horizons the others lack? Enjoy views up to the top of Forest Oaks and Forest Green Drive, to the side and Forest Oaks Drive and back to the wooded buffer to the rear. The living room skylight provides views to the night sky for stargazing and the front, back and side windows give more of the impression that you are inhabiting a house versus a townhouse. This particular home also features conveniently close parking--it's a breeze to bring groceries straight in from the level entrance. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a bright, private, move-in ready townhome in one of Durham's most convenient and desirable locations. Schedule your visit today and see everything this special property has to offer.
