Description

Enjoy the cozy charm of this historic townhome, in the center of all there is to love about Durham! You’ll be walkable to 4 different neighborhood districts, each offering their own delightful cafes, restaurants, bars, and shops – and every day you’ll be able to come home to comfort and warmth. Spacious and full of natural light, the home is an invitingly furnished 2-bedroom, 1 full bath, and a ½ bath. The 2nd bedroom is currently set up as family room / office, but it could be used as a bedroom instead. Both bedrooms have ample closet space, in addition to a large closet in the bathroom. The fully equipped kitchen was upgraded, along with all essential house systems. See a floor plan in the property link to see how the house flows. We are a mid-career couple who are fortunate enough to be able to take a step back from life to take a year off and travel. We plan to return to Durham and this home, though we have depersonalized it so that it can feel like yours while you are living here. We hope to find a tenant who will treat the home like their own, and we hope that you will love Durham as much as we do!
