Description

*Available for summer 2024 and/or fall 2024 and/or spring 2025.* More photos here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/hccEg4GFxF6Qzrjv7 This house can be 2 bedrooms 1 office, or 3 bedrooms This renovated historic home conveniently located in the Duke Park neighborhood less than two miles to downtown Durham and 15 min to RTP. Relax in the huge, private yard or around the fire pit. Built in the 1920s, this 1,500sq/ft house is brimming with historic charm but is modern where you need it: a beautifully remodeled kitchen and bathroom as well as original glass doorknobs and refinished hardwoods floors throughout, a wood burning fireplace in the living room, and 10-foot ceilings and large windows offer lots of light. Central heat/air (new high efficiency 16-SEER heat pump). For the environmentally minded: the house has solar panels, a compost pile, and dual flush toilet. Rooms: currently two bedrooms, one office but the office can become a third bedroom. The extra bed I have is a twin. One bathroom, dining room, living room, kitchen, screened in side porch, laundry room in the basement. The home is close to town but sits on a rare one-acre lot, so feels very private, while still conveniently close to everywhere you'd want to go. The living room has a 55" Smart TV and an xbox with a couple games. In the backyard there is a fire pit and lawn chairs and a sandbox for kids. There are ceiling fans throughout the house. There is plenty of space to park two cars side by side in the driveway, as well as free street parking. There's a washer and dryer in the basement. All my family's stuff is stored in the basement, so it's important to me that renters be responsible enough to not touch my things and just use the basement for laundry. There is a laundry chute from one of the bedrooms. The front bedroom has a queen bed, nightstands and lamps, closet, ceiling fan, and a dresser. The back bedroom has a queen bed, nightstands and lamps, two closets, a ceiling fan, and a dresser. The office has two walls of windows (6 windows) overlooking the backyard, a desk, drawers, a lamp, and a large cozy armchair. The kitchen and the living room/dining room area can all be closed off with doors so that sound does not travel to the bedroom area. This is my long term home, but I had to move away temporarily. I'm looking for tenants who will treat it with respect, not damage the hardwood floors, and keep it clean. There is a very nice lady who has been cleaning it for the past year, we can discuss if you'd like. Thanks!
