''NYC Loft Energy. Durham Backyard Freedom.'' Modern edge meets wide-open breathing room in this one-level Durham retreat on nearly an acre. Originally designed as a 4-bedroom, the home now lives as 3 bedrooms + flex space. Two oversized primary suites--for multigenerational living, long-term guests, or a sophisticated work-from-home setup. The vibe is open, bright, and effortlessly cool, with updates where they matter most: New roof (2025), HVAC (2018), tankless water heater (2022), and updated electrical panel. Nearly an acre of private space gives you room to garden, entertain, relax--or embrace your inner homesteader with the backyard chicken coop. No HOA. No Rules. Just space and style. All minutes from Downtown Durham, Duke, RTP, and Southpoint. Rare combination: urban attitude, backyard freedom.
