This bright, inviting one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence at the historic Pearl Mill Flats community offers a refined ''right-sized'' lifestyle designed for ease and flexibility. Life here extends beyond your front door. Step into a vibrant shared courtyard that serves as a true extension of your home. This recreational hub boasts a sparkling saltwater pool, yard games, picnic areas, grills, and flourishing gardens—perfect for socializing or quiet relaxation. As evening falls, gather around the communal wood-burning chiminea for those delightful Carolina nights. Inside, the condo is intelligently laid out for maximum efficiency. It features a kitchen with dining bar, a comfortable living area and a tranquil bedroom space. Storage is adaptable, offering options like two full closets or a built-in workstation paired with a single closet to suit your needs. There is a pantry off of the kitchen - a rare find in these units. The convenience of an onsite APP/coin-operated laundry room simplifies chores. This property provides exceptional versatility. No car needed as you embrace a highly walkable urban lifestyle, or leverage the condo's strong investment potential. Zoned to accommodate short- or long-term rentals for up to two guests, it's an ideal candidate for platforms like Airbnb, VRBO, and other host-share services. For those seeking a low-maintenance home base, the secure ''lock-and-leave'' format is unmatched. The location is a major asset, with unparalleled access to local hot spots. Stroll effortlessly to Duke's East Campus, Ninth Street district, downtown essential shops, artisan coffee at Cocoa Cinnamon, Geer Street Garden, and all the dynamic entertainment downtown Durham has to offer. HOA dues handle nearly all major expenses, covering water/sewer, garbage, high-speed internet service, cable TV, and exterior maintenance. Your only individual responsibility is the electricity bill, making budgeting simple. This is the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and community.
