This is your chance to prove the old adage true: the early bird really does catch the worm. George Birmingham was a prominent high-end builder in Durham's post-war era, renown for his work in sought after neighborhoods like Duke Forest, Forest Hills, and Hope Valley. Lesser known, however, is his portfolio of smaller homes, many inspired by the clean lines and thoughtful simplicity of mid-century modern design.

...This is your chance to prove the old adage true: the early bird really does catch the worm. George Birmingham was a prominent high-end builder in Durham's post-war era, renown for his work in sought after neighborhoods like Duke Forest, Forest Hills, and Hope Valley. Lesser known, however, is his portfolio of smaller homes, many inspired by the clean lines and thoughtful simplicity of mid-century modern design.

2702 Ashley St. beautifully captures the craftsmanship and architectural character that defined his work during that time. And, Birmingham's same commitment to solid construction and materials is evident in his smaller homes, as well as his custom projects. This is a rare opportunity for you to own a piece of Durham history. The home offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with an ensuite bath, along with a generous living area awash in natural light from two large picture windows. The renovated, eat-in kitchen is both spacious and functional; perfect for everyday living and entertaining alike. Both full bathrooms have been thoughtfully refreshed by the current owners with modern finishes that complement the home's original design elements. Tucked away on a quiet street, the location is hard to beat; less than 5 min. to Duke Regional, less than 10 minutes to downtown Durham and Duke University, approximately 20 minutes to RDU Airport, and just minutes from shopping and daily conveniences, including Whole Foods. And, for those bicycle enthusiasts, an access point to the North South Greenway Trail is just at the end of Ashley St.. Mid-century style is rarely available at this price point, so you know to include this home on your list of must-sees.
