Don't miss this adorable Trinity Park unicorn! This well-kept 2BR 1 BA 1941cottage on .21 acres has been lovingly maintained by the same owners for over 20 years and sports numerous recent upgrades. Modern living has been seamlessly woven into the original fabric of the home. New quartz countertops and all new stainless appliances were just added. The lovely hardwood floors are original while the kitchen and bath have new tile & a reglazed tub. Also in 2025 the porch foundation was rebuilt, and a new vapor barrier was added to the crawl space. The HVAC was replaced in 2023 and the roof in 2021. This home lives large with spacious rooms and closets. A sunroom off the back has laundry hookups and can double as an office while offering a serene treehouse vibe. The attic has been floored for a ton of storage space and there's also unfinished ''basement space'' under the sunroom with a ground level entrance for storing bikes and yard/garden equipment, etc. The deep back yard has a 6' privacy fence where Fido can get every last zoomie out. There are 4 raised organic garden beds ready for fresh plantings. A mature canopy of trees provide good shade while fruit bearing shrubs offer a delicious annual bounty.
This home, with its gobs of curb appeal, is set up for low-key, easy living and is ready to host a new generation of wonderful memories.
The South Ellerbe Creek Trail -just several doors down- joins several different trails providing easy access for walking or biking south to downtown or north to Club Blvd Elementary and to the Museum of Life and Science. The well-established Ellerbe Creek Trail is slated to become part of the new Durham Rail Trail project connecting some northern and eastern areas of Durham to downtown via the Ellerbe Creek Trail by a 1.78-mile pedestrian/bike/art loop. By car, it's less than 5 minutes to downtown, Brightleaf Square, or Duke's East Campus.
