What if your next home wasn't just a place to live, but a piece of history to cherish? The Lemuel Camp Homestead, circa 1835, is a stunning Georgian-style home on Durham's historic Main Street, lovingly preserved and in pristine condition. A perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort, this home is ready for its next chapter. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, period details, and inviting spaces that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The formal dining room is perfect for hosting memorable gatherings, while the living room and family room offer comfortable places to relax. A first-floor study provides a quiet retreat, whether for reading, work, or creativity. The remodeled kitchen and baths bring modern convenience while preserving the home's timeless character. Fireplaces with electric inserts create a cozy ambiance, and the original beehive oven remains as a treasured nod to the past. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, each filled with natural light and a walk-up attic offers great storage. Outside, the deep backyard invites endless possibilities-gardening, entertaining, or even adding a pool. Located in the heart of Durham's small-town charm, you're just a short stroll from the town green, schools, Allyn Brook Park and the library, as well as beloved community events like the Durham Fair. This isn't just a home-it's a legacy. Will you be the one to write its next chapter?
