Welcome to your slice of historic charm nestled in the heart of Durham's coveted Rockwood neighborhood! This exquisite 1950s Cape Cod sits among established flowering plants and ferns, and offers privacy, without sacrificing urban living. Just a stone's throw to Rockwood park, and a brief stroll to enjoy an evening martini at the new Nana's or a bevvy at Beer Study! Step inside to discover a meticulously maintained home, with all the timeless character you could hope for, plus modern updates throughout! A grand two story foyer with stately staircase and gleaming original hardwood floors welcome you in. Gracious living space with oversized windows, gas fireplace, and built ins. Four spacious bedrooms, plus a period-appropriate home office - a handsome backdrop for your next Zoom meeting. Expansive upstairs bedrooms could accommodate a future luxurious owner's suite, and a full bathroom on the main level means you never have to leave! Beautifully bright updated kitchen is perfect for hosting, with French doors that welcome you onto the expansive back deck among the trees, and overlooking your private, fenced yard. HUGE potential in the sprawling unfinished basement with second fireplace, and cool mid century bar - perfect for creating a lower level lounge vibe. Currently serves as a wonderful workshop or studio space for anyone who likes to tinker. Updates like newer HVACs, water heater, replacement windows, basement waterproofing, and completed structural work mean the heavy lifting has already been done! This historic beauty has been filled with love, and is ready for its next joyful chapter.
