Imagine a neighborhood in Durham, tucked into nature with old established trees and its own private entrance to the Eno River State Park where you can hike, swim, or walk your dog. Imagine it's just ten minutes away from downtown shopping, area restaurants, and nightlife. Now imagine a 2500+ square foot home in this neighborhood that's spacious and flexible, but half the price per square foot as homes in the downtown core. Finally, imagine the home also boasts a fully powered, finished, and insulated outbuilding with portable air conditioning that can be used as a home office, she-shed, mancave, workshop, or children's playroom. Well, imagine no more, because this home has it all. The split-level design with bedrooms upstairs creates separation between living areas. With two living rooms downstairs, you can have both a media room for entertainment, and an analog room to unplug and unwind. The deck—equipped with a fixed natural gas line that connects directly to your grill (no more propane tanks!)—and shaded gravel firepit patio create the perfect setup for hosting groups large or small. The two-car garage provides parking but can also be used for storage or a small home gym. If you have an electric vehicle--or if high gas prices have you thinking of buying one--there is a charging port already in place! Few homes in Durham offer this much comfort and flexibility in a peaceful, wooded environment that's also conveniently located to downtown, Duke, and major roadways.

In a quiet Durham neighborhood built for everyday life, this spacious 4-bedroom house offers room to spread out, settle in, and truly feel at home. With 2,727 square feet of thoughtfully laid-out living space, there's a place for everything — and everyone. Walkable to the Eno River! Just around the corner, a trailhead leads you straight to the Eno River — morning walks, weekend hikes, and easy access to nature are practically part of the floor plan. The main floor welcomes you with two separate living areas, giving your crew the freedom to spread out — the living room has French doors for an office (or quiet evenings) and a family room with fireplace — perfect for movie nights, game days, or letting the kids be kids while the adults unwind close by. The spacious, sunny kitchen looks over the backyard and meals here come with options: A formal dining room sets the stage for holiday gatherings and special-occasion dinners, while the breakfast room offers a cozy, sunlit spot for slower mornings and casual gatherings. And step outside to the private deck for easy autumn evenings and weekend barbecues, the kind of spot that turns grilling into a gathering. The four bedrooms are anchored by a generously sized owner's suite complete with a private bath and walk-in closet — an escape at the end of the day. And then there's the showstopper: the massive bonus room, a blank canvas ready to become whatever your family needs most. A 5th bedroom. A home theater. A playroom, home gym, or teen hangout. The possibilities are as big as the space itself. Outside, mature hardwood trees shade the yard, creating a cool, comfortable outdoor space in every season. Beyond the fenced backyard are woods, giving you privacy and a quiet, natural backdrop few homes can offer — a buffer between your everyday life and the wider world. An attached 2-car garage rounds things out, with extra room for storage so bikes, tools, and holiday decorations all have a home of their own. This is a home that grows with you — full of warmth, flexibility, and room to breathe.
