Pinecrest is a model for what a modern urban village should be, with a location and historic legacy no other single-family home project in Durham can claim. It is a place where walkability, thoughtful design, and community connection come together in one of Durham's most historic settings. Located within the Forest Hills Historic District, this carefully planned neighborhood blends timeless architecture with modern convenience. Inspired by the principles of New Urbanism, Pinecrest encourages a lifestyle that values connection, sustainability, and a strong sense of place. Shared green spaces, walking trails, and pedestrian-friendly pathways create opportunities for neighbors to gather and enjoy the outdoors while offering direct access to the American Tobacco Trail and downtown Durham. Each home within Pinecrest is designed to honor the architectural legacy of the area, featuring Tudor inspired homes with refined interiors that merge classic craftsmanship with contemporary living. Mature trees, natural hardscapes, and elegant landscaping preserve the estate's beauty and create a setting that feels both established and new. Residents enjoy the tranquility of a private retreat while remaining moments from Durham's best dining, arts, and cultural destinations. Raleigh-Durham International Airport is also a convenient 20-minute drive away. We currently have one home available on Bivins Street, located next to Pinecrest. Learn more.
