    What's special

    Charm abounds in this quaint colonial near downtown Durham. Lovingly restored by the owners with a brand new kitchen, refinished hardwood floors, and fresh paint throughout, this home is move-in ready while still bursting with potential. Nestled back from the road on a .68-acre lot surrounded by mature trees, 2720 welcomes you through the front door or the large covered patio to beautiful hardwood floors, a charming fireplace, and arched doorway details. The all-white kitchen is the perfect combination of style and function, with plenty of storage to spare. Toward the back of the home, two well-appointed bedrooms offer peaceful views of the yard and ample closet space. The large, vintage bathroom is ready for a character-lover or for someone to put their own stamp on it. Don't miss the recently redone basement, offering plenty of storage and workspace. Perhaps the best-kept secret of this home is the second floor: a floored attic bathed in light from three large windows. With nearly 600 square feet of opportunity, this space could become a bonus room, second-floor primary, or finished office — the options are endless.
