Modern 4BR Home Near Downtown

Summary:

Escape to our modern 4-bedroom Durham retreat, perfect for families & groups! This light-filled, single-level home features a gourmet kitchen, dedicated workspace, and a private fenced backyard. Nestled in a quiet, green neighborhood yet minutes from downtown and Duke University, it offers the perfect blend of relaxation and convenience. Comfortably accommodates your entire group.



The Space:

Step into a light-filled, modern home with an elegant, streamlined style. The open-plan living room is the perfect central gathering space, flowing into a fully equipped kitchen with striking granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Share meals at the beautiful hardwood locally harvested dining table.



Our home comfortably accommodates your group with four thoughtfully designed bedrooms:

•King Bedroom: An en-suite retreat with French doors, a granite double vanity, and a luxurious spa-like river rock shower.

•Second Primary Bedroom: A family-friendly space with a full tub, a convenient changing table, and a gorgeous granite slab vanity.

•Two Queen Bedrooms: Two comfortable queen rooms, one with dedicated desk, share a hall bathroom featuring riverstone flooring in the shower, a glass enclosure, and a granite counter.



Step outside to relax on the vaulted front porch with its inviting up-lighting, or have fun with yard games in the private, fenced-in backyard. For your convenience, the home includes an in-unit washer and dryer.



Guest Access:

You will have exclusive and private access to the entire home. This includes all four bedrooms, bathrooms, the kitchen, living areas, the front porch, and the fenced-in backyard.



Enjoy seamless self-check-in with a keypad on the front door, allowing you to arrive at your convenience any time after check-in. Free parking is available on the premises for your vehicles.

Situated on the edge of Old North Durham, our home offers proximity to downtown in an urban, income diverse residential area. The house is 7/10ths of a mile from the DIY District including The Pit, Motorco, Geer St Garden, Fullsteam Brewery and Cocoa Cinnamon. It's also an easy trip to Duke, RTP, the downtown Farmer's Market, & many local (and delicious) restaurants/cafes & local bars/breweries. Need more space? Our home next door on Geer also serves as a Vacation Rental offers a gate connecting the two yards.



Getting Around:

The house is very easy to access and is a short drive to downtown, NC147, I85 and Durham's main thoroughfares. If you're taking a bus, there are many bus lines that should easily drop you off very close to our house. Lyfts and Ubers are abundant in the area as well.

Great stay!

We really enjoyed our time at this cute little house. It was clean, the beds were comfortable, and there was even coffee readily available. This is a clearly experienced host who knows the basics people are looking for. We had our two littles with us so no stairs inside was a plus! We would stay here again :)

Amazing Stay! Best Way to Experience Durham

Our stay was amazing, hands down! This property was centrally located, which made traversing the city and other areas a breeze. We were close to downtown Durham, where we spent a lot of time. The property was very clean, well provisioned, and set up for our family's vacation. Everyone had their own space, which we all appreciated! We definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to experience Durham.

Super clean and spacious home

Sister weekend for Dpac-loved the fact that two of the bedrooms had an en-suite bathroom. The home is decorated nicely and everything was spotless. Durham is going through an aggressive transformation/regentrification stage and this home is located in a transforming area with a mix of old and new. Can’t wait to see this area in a few years. We would stay here again

Few days in Durham

We came into town for a major surgery at Duke University Hospital for our 19 yr old son that is battling cancer. The house was a great location for our family to travel back and forth to be with him and have a place to rest. The area was nice. We hope to be able to visit again when we can enjoy more. Thank you!

An understated gem in a thriving and growing Durham

The restoration work on this property was a jpy to behold. The layout on the inside works from a common lodge-like middle area, with four bedrooms ringing the middle. It is at the same time a great gathering place and a place for private relaxation. My sisters occupied this property during the trip and could not have been more happy. Host Dylan went above and beyond to help during the trip. Highly recommended!

A Lifesaver

This home was ideal for our lengthy, medically-related stay at Duke Medical Center. Not only was the home comfortably outfitted for any and all needs and wants, it was ideally located close to the hospitals, restaurants, groceries, etc. Owner was particularly helpful in some rescheduling issues. If we are ever back in Durham for a long spell, we will return. Excellent value.

Medical procedure

You will not be disappointed in staying here. One worry we had upon arrival was the busy street the house was on, but the traffic tapered off around 7 and it was pretty quiet. The house was clean and spacious with all the amenities of home! The pictures matched the house exactly! If our next Tri to Durham results in an extended stay we will stay here! Thank you so much for opening your home to us!

Lovely home, fabulous hosts,great quality inside with all necessities. Cleaning, bathroom, kitchen staples which was unexpected but appreciated. The area where this home is located I believe is a poorer area that that is starting to be gentrified into a much more appreciated space. Felt safe and cozy inside the home. Businesses around close a bit sketchy. Absolutely would stay again because you are near a lot of things and the home was exceptional.
