Nestled on one of Canterbury's most desirable corner lots, this thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom home truly has it all, and more. The heart of the home is a stunning kitchen with an oversized island overlooking the living room, perfect for cooking, entertaining, and enjoying the game! A separate dining room offers space for gatherings, while a main-level bedroom with its own en-suite bath adds convenience and flexibility for guests or a home office. The oversized two-car garage connects through a practical mudroom with a large closet, ideal for everyday organization and keeping clutter out of sight. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, three full bathrooms, laundry room, plus a flexible bonus room. The owner's suite is a true retreat, featuring a spa-like bath with separate vanities, rainshower, and a spacious walk-in closet. Enjoy crisp fall evenings on the screened-in porch, or make the most of the expansive, flat yard ideal for play, gardening, or hosting. Canterbury is one of Durham's most centrally located neighborhoods with sidewalks throughout, and a dog park. Just minutes from Duke University and Hospital, Downtown Durham, Chapel Hill, local restaurants, and shopping, with easy access to major highways.
