$575,000

Set on two partially wooded acres in Durham, this home offers a rare blend of natural beauty and privacy, plus proximity to shopping, entertainment, and peaceful hikes. Mornings begin with birdsong and views of mature trees framing the southern and western edges of the property. Flowering gardens create year-round… Read More color, with roses, hibiscus, magnolias, bluebells, daffodils, day lilies, and chaste trees blooming in succession through the seasons. From the primary bedroom's large bay window, the patio and gardens feel almost like a private botanical retreat. The home's thoughtfully designed floor plan balances openness with comfort and flexibility. A spacious first-floor primary. The dramatic vaulted family room rising two stories with an expansive wall of windows framing views of the surrounding trees and open sky. Natural light fills the space throughout the day, creating an ever-changing connection to the outdoors. The kitchen is well laid out and flows naturally into a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the property. Just off the main living spaces, a cozy living room or office opens through double doors onto the wraparound front porch. It's an inviting spot for morning coffee, reading, or evening conversations. The sprawling 30-foot deck is shaded by a historic Hewes Crab apple tree, an heirloom American variety. The orchard-like backyard includes Old Southern apple trees sourced from Century Farms Orchards in Reidsville, North Carolina, with varieties such as Virginia Beauty, Roxbury Russet, and Limbertwig, alongside two varieties of pear trees. Life here invites both quiet wandering and outdoor adventure. Stroll the shaded lane in front of the home, explore the wooded acreage, or spend afternoons at nearby Sarah P. Duke Gardens. Just a few miles away, West Point on the Eno offers river access, hiking trails, meadows, and connections to the Mountains-to-Sea Trail stretching across North Carolina. Though the setting feels peaceful and secluded, downtown Durham is only minutes away, with easy access to the American Tobacco Campus, the Durham Bulls at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and performances at Durham Performing Arts Center. Living here means enjoying a calming oasis within the city. It's private, connected to nature, and still close to everything that makes Durham Cool. Read Less
