Description

This renovated 1920s Old North Durham light-filled bungalow is sure to charm! The four-over-one windows, original door with transoms, craftsman-style columns, the Southern Star-type balustrades and the raked bricks with fun laying patterns around the house reflect the joy exuded in this home's history. Inside boasts lovely hardwood floors, high ceilings, glass doorknobs, a French door, thick moldings and plaster walls. Enjoy the spacious updated kitchen and the stunning renovated tiled bathroom with heated floors, and renovated windows with copper chain replacing the old rope cords. Enjoy easy living using a rare, dedicated laundry/art space with lots of cabinets and an extra dishwasher. A gorgeous wide hall furthers the sense of spaciousness. The living room and dining rooms can be closed off from the rest of the house for noise reduction or privacy. The peaceful back bedroom or office feels like you're in a tree house. And over 1600sq ft of basement offers a tremendous amount of storage (window screens are there and landscaping tools, bikes, etc. used to be). A large portion of the space was floored and partially framed (no sheetrock) with electrical outlets and was used both as a workshop and band rehearsal on a concrete stage. Access to the basement is both through a hallway door inside the house and through an exterior door in the back. A deep fenced-in backyard lets Fido get his zoomies out while you sit in the shade of the covered patio or get some sun in relaxing on the pebbled patio. Park in the carport off the alley or in the driveway in front of the home. Traffic on this block of West Trinity is calmed by a roundabout 3 doors down. When swinging on the front porch looking down at the gorgeous tree-lined street enjoyed by many generations, you may forget that you're only 4.5 blocks to the many activities Downtown Durham offers these days. Run into your neighbors at the Farmer's Market, melt over the crepes at Press, throw some pottery at the Durham Arts Council, grab a pizza at Hutchins Garage, head to a Bulls game or to DPAC, and have a drink at Full Steam on the way home. You name it. Many of the non-glamourous things have been done recently: new roof with architectural shingles; foundation work recommended by Piedmont Engineering; and new sewer, main, and drain lines all installed in 2018. New Bosch HVAC/AC heat pump and bathroom renovation in 2021. In 2024 Kitchen update with new soft-close cabinets, quartz countertops, and new stainless appliances: Back steps were rebuilt; and the house was painted inside and out. This updated low-maintenance home lets you enjoy the things you love to do hanging at home or quickly get out on the town.
