This timeless Craftsman shines bright in Old North Durham, one of Durham's most walkable and beloved neighborhoods. Perched above historic Seeman Street, the wide front porch welcomes you in. Inside? Sunshine for days. Oversized windows flood the space with light, highlighting gleaming refinished hardwoods. The handsome living room is anchored by cozy gas fireplace flanked with built-ins. The modern kitchen is ready for its close up: quartz counters with great prep space, stainless appliances, gas range, and a wine bar complete with beverage fridge. Hosting is effortless here. Throw open the French door and let the party spill onto the back deck overlooking fenced yard with productive fruit trees - sunshine-filled and garden-ready. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a retreat, with a huge walk in closet and luxe en suite bath. Two generous secondary bedrooms offer flexibility and upstairs laundry adds convenience. Bonus points for the whole house sound system, 2019 HVAC, 2023 water heater, and dual zone thermostats. Newer construction with thoughtful, modern comforts. Live steps from everything that makes Durham one of the best cities in the South. Walk to the Farmers' Market, Cocoa Cinnamon, Louella, and more. Craftsman charm, modern comfort, and an unbeatable location!
