Property Description
Offer deadline for 9 pm Sunday, 11/10! This groovy brick beauty may have been born in the 70s, but it has been fantastically updated, with mid-century style ready for modern life. She's a brick house, offering one-level living and a new in 2020 detached 2 bed 2 bath apartment - perfect for multigenerational living, Airbnb, or home office/studio space! The natural light in this house is out-of-sight, streaming in through oversized picture windows, highlighting gorgeous hardwood floors. Huge living space is ready to spin some vinyl and flows into dining/sitting room, making it the perfect pad to host your next shindig. Showstopper kitchen with custom wood cabinetry, Bosch appliances, and vintage charm in the eat-in kitchen with wallpaper and built-in bench seating.
Spacious primary suite with double closets has plenty of space for all your funky digs. Lovely secondary bedrooms have newer windows. Laundry room/mudroom is the perfect drop zone off of covered carport with EV charger. Large covered porch and patio overlook the private fenced yard with major flower power in the perennial gardens. The separate 812 sq ft apartment is just as stellar as the main house, with a dreamy kitchen, spacious living room with skylights, and custom storage that feel like the pages of a design magazine.
Just like Curtis Mayfield, this home will make you want to ''Move on Up'' - located on a large corner lot just a skip to to Whippoorwill Park, 7 minutes to Duke, 12 minutes to downtown Durham, and 20 minutes to Chapel Hill! Don't miss out on the good vibes in this gorgeous modern ranch!
