This meticulously maintained brick Cape Cod features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, thoughtful updates, abundant storage, and more than 3,000 total square feet of living space, all outside a traditional subdivision. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors carry through a thoughtful multi-level layout with 2,526 square feet of above-grade living space. The updated kitchen features granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances and flows naturally into the main living and dining areas, creating a warm, connected heart of the home. A cozy flex space with rich wood-grain walls adds versatility as a home office, reading nook, or library retreat. The primary suite feels like a true retreat with generous closet space and a spa-like marble-tiled bath. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, family, or work-from-home needs. The finished basement adds 553 square feet of bonus living space, bringing the home to more than 3,100 total square feet. Anchored by a fireplace and offering direct access to the backyard, this level is ideal for a rec room, media space, or comfortable gathering area. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a screened porch overlooking mature wooded grounds that feel genuinely tucked away. Storage is abundant, including a walk-in attic, a large attic above the 2-car garage, and additional attic space throughout the home. Seven parking spaces and a whole-house gas generator add comfort, practicality, and peace of mind. Adding to its character, the home was built circa 1951 and is known as the J. Howell and Nellie Miller House, a recognized contributing structure within the Hope Valley National Register Historic District. It offers a meaningful connection to mid-century Durham history while still delivering the comfort, updates, and functionality buyers want today. Perfectly positioned near 15-501, NC-751, I-40, and the Durham Freeway, this home offers easy access to Duke, Downtown Durham, Chapel Hill, RTP, RDU, and everyday conveniences.
