This stunning 5-bedroom, 4-bath home with an oversized 3-car garage for that workshop or extra hobby space you've been dreaming of offers 3 separate interior living rooms, dual HVAC zones and multiple bedrooms for multiple uses as you see fit! This is the private retreat you have been looking for located in a sought after area of Durham and the Triangle region. Price just reduced to $75K under recent appraisal value to give new homeowners instant equity and designed to sell soon—this is an opportunity not to miss. 705 Harkness is in the heart of the Carillon Forest neighborhood and steps away from Hollow Rock Nature park (located just across Randolph Road) and nearby Duke Forest. The home itself is surrounded by lush, mature plantings, a private backyard and large deck waiting for you to grill out or step outside for a beverage on a cool summer night. Enjoy peaceful mornings sipping your coffee and tea on the charming front porch overlooking garden beds and an unobstructed wooded view across the street, acreage never to be developed. Inside, you'll step into a bright and open floor plan with a dramatic two-story living room. There is a large loft upstairs where space options abound. The luxurious primary suite provides separate vanities, a water closet, jetted tub, walk-in shower, and a generous walk-in closet with multiple built-ins. On the main level, you will find an additional bedroom and full bath perfect for guests or multi-generational living. The open floor plan allows meals to be prepared while others enjoy the family room or keep you company at the granite island breakfast bar. The kitchen boasts double ovens, an upgraded stainless steel fridge, a gas cooktop and roomy pantry. New ''smart'' washer and dryer in upstairs laundry. Other recent updates: a New Roof (2024) with architectural shingles, newly painted exterior and plush carpet downstairs. Neighbors gather for social events throughout the year as they wish, including Jazz on the Green, Fall Festival, clubs and more at the playground and other natural areas. This house is perfectly positioned between Duke and UNC and in the midst of all Southwest Durham has to offer. You will be just minutes from I-85 and I-40 access. Desirable school zone with beloved elementary school around the corner. The perfect combination of space, style, and serenity—don't miss your chance to call 705 Harkness home!
