About This Home

Live in and work in this charming 1930s Craftsman-style bungalow located in Durham's versatile Office/Institutional, Urban Tier district. Step through the front gate into a rambling flower garden and onto a large, rocking-chair front porch. Enjoy a front parlor with fireplace and a separate dining room. The sunny breakfast room has a wall of windows for lots of light. This older home of character has German-board wood siding; and a newer roof, gutters and water heater. Plus, there's an unfinished, walk-out basement with concrete flooring. Additional parking is neatly tucked around the old, detached garage building out back. Great location. Less than a block to Lakewood Social Restaurant; within minutes to Cocoa Cinnimon, Lakewood YMCA, Duke University, Durham Performing Arts Center, Durham Bulls Ballpark, restaurants, shopping & houses of worship.
