There's something about Northgate Park. Maybe it's the tree-lined streets, charming homes, trails, or just the the park itself. If you're looking to be a part of Durham's history, then check out a classic Northgate Park bungalow at 2712 Shenandoah Ave. Inside you'll find all of the charm. Refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, fresh paint and a gas-log fireplace give the home the warmth and character you hope to find in an older Durham house. The kitchen has been thoughtfully improved with updated countertops, cabinetry, sink and dishwasher, while the bathroom has been renovated with tile flooring, tile surround and updated fixtures. Newer windows throughout bring in plenty of natural light. And while the character is easy to see, much of the important work has happened behind the scenes. The owners have made substantial improvements to the foundation and crawlspace, plumbing, roof and other major systems, along with a newer HVAC system water heater. Out back, a 12' x 12' wired shed gives you room for bikes, tools, a workshop or whatever project comes next, while the deck and yard give you space to enjoy a neighborhood where you'll actually feel part of a community. And then there's the location. Just minutes from downtown Durham, the Museum of Life and Science, and all the major highways connecting you to the rest of the Triangle. Durham has changed enormously since Northgate Park began taking shape more than 80 years ago and 2712 Shenandoah feels like a reminder of what has made this part of the city special all along: mature trees, homes with character, a real neighborhood, and a connection to the city around it. Now it's ready for its next chapter.
