Description

Welcome home to the sweetest brick ranch that's a hop, skip, and a jump from downtown Durham AND the nearby Costco (ensuring you can shop small and local, as well as get your fix of your favorite Kirkland Signature bulk order). Here you'll experience one-level living in a cozy home that lives large - enjoy several living spaces, two bedrooms, a sunroom, and a deep, fenced backyard where you can relax on the patio and enjoy mature plantings (don't miss the koi pond!) and shade from the majestic oak...Welcome home to the sweetest brick ranch that's a hop, skip, and a jump from downtown Durham AND the nearby Costco (ensuring you can shop small and local, as well as get your fix of your favorite Kirkland Signature bulk order). Here you'll experience one-level living in a cozy home that lives large - enjoy several living spaces, two bedrooms, a sunroom, and a deep, fenced backyard where you can relax on the patio and enjoy mature plantings (don't miss the koi pond!) and shade from the majestic oak tree. This 1948 charmer offers the best of the old and the new: original hardwood floors in beautiful condition, a fireplace with gas logs, fresh paint inside and out, a water heater and furnace that are both just a few years old, and new light fixtures that make this special spot sparkle.
