Welcome home to 2828 Stuart Drive, a fully renovated 1958 split-level in Durham's Rockwood Heights neighborhood with no HOA, where mid-century character meets a 2026 top-to-bottom remodel. Step through the modern wood-and-glass front door into a vaulted living room with recessed lighting, an electric fireplace set against a custom paneled accent wall, and wide sliding glass doors that open onto a new two-level deck. A few steps up, the open-concept kitchen and dining area is made for gathering. It has a large center island with seating, white quartz countertops, a gas range, stainless appliances, a textured tile backsplash and brass pendant lighting. The dining area is wrapped in windows looking into the trees, and a wallpapered half bath sits just off the dining room. Through its own doorway, the private primary wing feels like a retreat. It includes a bedroom with a board-and-batten accent wall and a spa-inspired bathroom with double floating vanities, vessel sinks, and a tiled walk-in shower with a lit niche. There's also a walk-in closet so generous it was once a bedroom, plus laundry right where you need it. Downstairs, two more bedrooms each open to the outside through sliding glass doors, sharing a full bath and a built-in desk nook for working from home. Pergo luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout. Out back, the 0.34-acre wooded lot has a lounge deck, an upper dining deck under mature trees, and a storage shed. The roof, HVAC, water heater and dishwasher are all new. It's all within walking distance of Guglhupf, Foster's Market, Q-Shack and the University Greene shops, with Rockwood Park down the street and Duke University, Duke Hospital and RTP an easy drive away.
