About this home
Seller offering buyer incentive that may be used toward an interest rate buy-down or closing cost -- ask how this could impact your monthly payment.
Completely reimagined from the inside out, this thoughtfully renovated home blends the character of Durham's Historic District with the comfort and finishes today's buyers are looking for. From insulation and drywall to exterior siding and gutters, the work here goes far beyond the surface - this is a full transformation completed with intention. Inside, durable LVP flooring, recessed lighting, and a clean modern aesthetic are paired with sleek matte black fixtures and hardware throughout. The kitchen is a standout feature, designed with both style and function in mind, featuring LG stainless steel appliances, a solid surface range with warming zone, air fry and convection oven, a farmhouse sink, matching backsplash and countertops, soft-close cabinetry, built-in spice racks, and a large island with custom wood detailing. A pantry adds everyday convenience. The primary suite offers a spacious walk-in shower with floor-to-ceiling tile, while the second full bath is a rare advantage for the area --many homes nearby offer only one-- providing added flexibility for guests or daily living. All on one level, the home also features a wood-burning fireplace and a covered side porch that could easily be screened in for additional outdoor living. The .21-acre lot is generous for the area, with a newly fenced backyard, mature trees, and a sense of privacy that feels tucked away while still being connected. Located on the residential side of Lakewood, this setting offers a quieter, more peaceful feel while still being just minutes from downtown Durham, restaurants, parks, shopping, and more. Sidewalk-lined streets add to the neighborhood charm and livability. If you've been watching this home, it may be worth taking another look.
All renovations were done under the supervision of the City of Durham, by the Historic District Guidelines. Before starting the project, the plans had to earn a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Commiss. Everything was properly permitted and completed.
***UPDATE: The neighbor to the right's fence has been fixed! The seller and the neighbor came together to get it done! Photo added in gallery.***...
