    What's special

    Tiled coal-burner fireplace surroundsDeep front porchWraparound deckBead-board ceilingsVaulted ceilingIntricately carved newel postsMassive screened porch
    This alluring Victorian was built in 1907 for Joshua Melvin, a salesman at the Burch-Gorman Shoe Store in downtown Durham. Local builder Miles Honeycutt and Sara Lachenman with Four-Over-One Design created a sensitive revitalization of the home in 2011, exposing and restoring intricately carved newel posts, bead-board ceilings, and tiled coal-burner fireplace surrounds. The present owners added a massive screened porch with vaulted ceiling and wraparound deck to optimize backyard enjoyment. The home is across the street from Burch Avenue Park, a quick stroll to the busline, Duke's East Campus, downtown, Co-op, or 9th Street. The deep front porch extends the full length of the house, and the driveway offers an electric car charger. If you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint while increasing your cool house credibility, 813 Burch is your gem.
