Sunny, spacious 3 bed/2 bath home near Duke University

Description

Sunny and beautiful 3 bed/2 bath single family home in Durham's best neighborhood, Northgate Park. Home is fully furnished with two bedrooms and an office; office can accommodate an additional bed. Walkable/bikeable/skateable to downtown via the Ellerbe Creek Trail, or a 5 min drive. About 5 min to East Campus and 10 to West. Fantastic neighbors. Two main bedrooms have walk-in closets, and the current office has a large double-door closet. Lots of additional storage space with a coat closet, linen closet, kitchen pantry, and laundry closet that holds the washer and dryer. Primary bathroom has a custom shower and vanity; additional bathroom has a spacious tub and is shared by two bedrooms. Fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters will include dishes, silverware, cookware, and some small appliances for your use. Relax on the wraparound front porch while bees, butterflies, and birds visit the large pollinator garden, or sit out on the quiet and private back deck. Walk to two neighborhood coffee shops--one that doubles as a community pop-up event space--the Museum of Life and Science, swim at Edison Johnson Rec Center, or enjoy Rock Quarry Park nature trails and community festivals. This is my full-time, long-term home, and I am prioritizing tenants who will treat it with the same care and attention to upkeep as I would. It is arranged and appointed like an Airbnb so that you don't feel as if you're nested in someone else's life while you're here. Cozily furnished and decorated so you can settle in and enjoy the area, with plenty of room for you to be at home. I started a fellowship in California in fall of 2024 and would be thrilled to work with a scholar with an appointment in Durham, but am open to many different arrangements. If you have any questions or needs that aren't addressed here, please feel free to reach out!
