About this House

Opportunity awaits at this immaculate and spacious home tucked-away in a prime location minutes from everything the Triangle has to offer. 809 Poplar Street welcomes you home with beautiful landscaping, an undeniable curb appeal and a covered front porch. Upon entering, the foyer opens on the right a coveted home office with double picture windows, crown molding, a custom chandelier, hardwood floors and double glass French doors. Straight ahead, the hallway leads you into an expansive, open-concept living area that works perfectly for today's lifestyle. The "center attraction" is undoubtedly the chef-inspired kitchen. A massive, granite-topped island includes a breakfast bar, a deep, single-bowl undermount stainless sink, a dishwasher and additional cabinet space. Dark walnut cabinetry flanks two sides of the island and is adorned by additional acres of granite counters accentuated by a custom-tiled backsplash as well as under-cabinet lighting that looks spectacular at night. Recessed LED lighting, a corner pantry and a suite of sleek, stainless-steel appliances rounds-out the kitchen experience. A conveniently-located laundry room (with washer/dryer included) also offers solid wood floating shelving and a countertop above the washer and dryer. On the other side of the kitchen, you'll next enter a perfectly-proportioned dining area with recessed LED lighting, double picture windows and easy access to a lovely screened-in porch. The kitchen and dining area seamlessly intertwine with an adjacent family room that showcases a TV mount with surround sound already installed as well as a custom ceiling fan and a very neat electric fireplace that adds warmth and a wonderful ambiance to the space. 809 Poplar Street also offers you a coveted first floor primary bedroom.

    "It is a well established community that is weathering the storm that afflicts a city in sudden sporadic growth We will weather this storm and any other . This place is called Home to many whom have lived here through Three or more generations and many newcomers who chose to make this place their new home. I wish I could find an appropriate rental here. I am on the edge in a house I have afforded to live in for twenty-nine yrs. The house was recently sold and I find that I may be under the bridge at age 79 due to so-called gentrification . Durham is known for undermining it's citizens in the name of progress. It's a backhanded way of doing things but it will come out alright because the so-called little people come together when they realize what is happening."
