New price for an AS IS SALE!! Almost 100K less than TAX VALUE! Fabulous Duke Forest location with incredible modern style. This is your chance to own a light-filled modern home designed by architect KEN SCOTT. The peaceful outdoor setting is brought inside through the towering clerestory windows in the foyer, living room, and kitchen. Clerestory wall cut-outs allow light from outdoors and skylights to be shared to other areas. You'll marvel at the vaulted ceilings and high windows of different shapes that draw the eye upward. The built-ins could hold thousands of books (calling all professors!) or the cherished items that you wish to display. Enjoy the warmth of huge fireplace in the living room with a row of windows above. The hardwoods and waxed brick flooring add to the warmth of the home. The kitchen oozes mid century modern style and has a vaulted ceiling with the lowest point of @13'. Enjoy the private .71 acre lot and natural beauty of the yard. This home has 4 bedrooms and two basement flex rooms with closets to choose how to use. Laundry room with a sink. Lots of flexibility with this gem of a home! Ride your bicycle to Duke University or Duke Medical Center. Traditional homes are everywhere, but this home has wonderful architectural details and is in such a great central Durham location.
