...There's a moment when you step through the front door of 1904 Ward Street where expectations quietly fall away--in the best possible way.
-
The ceilings rise to fifteen feet, creating an immediate sense of volume and light that feels far beyond the home's footprint. Sunlight pours in through thoughtfully selected, real wood windows--windows that open, breathe, and were intentionally placed to draw the outside in. The living and kitchen spaces unfold seamlessly, with a level of openness and flow rarely found at this scale or price point. It becomes clear almost instantly: this home was designed differently.
-
And from the very first glance, it looks different too. Cedar shake siding gives the exterior a warmth and texture that stands apart from anything else nearby, while a handcrafted cedar flower box sits just outside the bathroom window--an unexpected, quietly beautiful detail that speaks to the level of thought behind every decision. This isn't a house pulled from a template. It's one that was imagined, refined, and built with intention.
-
Inside, that same philosophy continues. Built around the idea that great design and true livability should be accessible, every inch reflects careful consideration. The finishes feel elevated without being excessive. Proportions are balanced. Spaces connect naturally. A working fireplace anchors the living area, adding warmth and character when it matters most. Even the details--like a tucked-away pet nook--feel purposeful. Nothing is overdone. Nothing is overlooked.
-
The layout delivers the ease of single-story living at its best. The primary suite, bathroom, laundry, kitchen, and living areas all sit on one level, creating a rhythm to daily life that feels intuitive and efficient. And while the home measures 869 square feet, it lives far beyond that number--expansive where it counts, comfortable everywhere else.
-
Step outside and the experience continues. The backyard offers a quiet, inviting retreat--perfect for unwinding at the end of the day, gathering around a fire, or simply enjoying a peaceful moment outdoors. It's a natural extension of the home, designed with the same care and intention.
-
Located just one mile from Downtown Durham, half a mile to Lakewood, and minutes from Rockwood's vibrant dining scene, this is a setting that makes daily life easy and connected. Coffee, restaurants, and essentials are all within reach, making it just as natural to walk as it is to drive--though you may find yourself choosing to walk more often than not.
-
This house was built with great intention. Built by a local Durham builder, with architecture by Chad Wilkins and design collaboration from Four Over One, this home is a true product of local vision and craftsmanship. It's a house shaped by people who understand Durham--its scale, its character, and how a home should feel within it. This house was built by Durham, in every sense.
