Description
Offer deadline at Noon on Sunday 2/11! Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme... but don't forget Lavender! This 1950s cottage was built solid - no delicate flower. Nestled in the heart of Colonial Village, just a few blocks from Northgate Park, and a quick bike ride to Downtown Durham! You feel the calming effects as soon as you step inside, with light filled rooms, gleaming old hardwoods and sparkling crystal door knobs. Lovely recent updates to bathrooms and kitchen, with fresh paint and tasteful fixtures throughout. Plenty of space to unwind in this flowing floor plan, with 3 bedrooms, a reading room, and 4th bedroom/home office/den! Smell the verdant Spring air as you step onto the large back deck, ready for warm weather gatherings. Your herb garden will thrive in the flat, fenced yard with full sun! Store your tinctures in the cool dry detached garage with loads of storage. Find your sanctuary in this peaceful home before the burgeoning Spring market is in full bloom!

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is truly focused on building community. I have two kids at Club and each teacher for the last 5 years has been kind, responsive, knowledgeable, respectful and energetic. The staff and principal work tirelessly to improve and respond to needs. For example, during our first or second year the parent survey asked for improvement in school and teacher communication. The staff and teachers then implemented a school-wide communication tool and stuck with it, greatly improving communication between teachers, families and leadership. And teachers were so creative and flexible when the school board kept the schools remote until March. This is a place where everyone knows your name and you are truly cared about as part of a whole. The guidance counselor is amazing, too.Other Review4y ago - Riverside High School
