Markham's unmissable storybook quality hits the mark. Rooted in history yet decidedly of the moment, this 1935 Trinity Park brick-and-stone gem situated amidst old-growth trees and time-honored residences is minutes to Duke's campus and the flourishing food scene plus cultural offerings of downtown Durham. The home's hallmark is how stylish, sublimely crafted renovations create invigorating juxtapositions of old and new. A strong feeling of permanence emanates from the wood floorboards connecting all of the rooms, antique millwork, wood doors with cut glass hardware, and plaster walls. Thoughtful and thorough ministrations include a kitchen expansion & dreamy makeover with cherry cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances; revamped deck with wrought-iron railing; a fully-fenced glorious garden, featured in the 2024 Trinity Park Garden tour, bursting with perennials and fragrant herbs; brick patio fondly named ''the wine garden'' by the current owners; revitalized lower level suite with bamboo flooring, a perfectly polished tile and quartz bathroom plus a roomy laundry room; reconfigured primary suite walk-in closet; built-in shelving in the main level flex room; and refurbishing the wood-burning masonry fireplace. Well-placed windows bathe rooms in suffused sunlight. The roomy second level bedrooms with spacious closets share a retro-smart tile bath. This classic landmark with solid bones has only gotten better with age. On your mark, get set...make your mark on Markham!
