Description

Bring all Offers! New Roof New HVAC! How often are you going to find an Acre lot this far into the city? Not only is there a landscaped, fenced in yard, but the house is massive to boot! An addition in the 1970s expanded the square footage by adding three bonus areas, one of which could easily be used as a Bedroom. Combine a quiet neighborhood with easy access to Starbucks, bike trails & shopping, and you have a delightful living experience with a 10 minute commute to Duke/Downtown.Bring all Offers!
