This super sweet 1920s bungalow, renovated in 2014, offers the perfect blend of character and modern updates. Nestled on a 1/4 acre lot in downtown Durham, this single-story home lives large with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, an abundance of natural light, high ceilings, and an easy, open layout that flows effortlessly. Cooking will be a delight in the spacious kitchen with granite counters, new(ish) fridge, disposal + glass cooktop, loads of storage with deep cabinet drawers and beautiful custom ceramic pendant light fixtures, made by local potter, Joe Sink. Conveniently close to everything - head to the Farmer's Market for kale and kombucha, or grab some fall veggies to plant in the raised garden beds in the fenced backyard (lot extends past the fence). Enjoy morning coffee on the huge front porch, or grab a latte from Cocoa Cinnamon. Invite your pals over - lots of space for entertaining plus two driveways for ample parking!
