Charming Cottage Near Duke with Garden Oasis & Income Potential! Come home to this inviting one-level, 3-bedroom, 2-bath cottage tucked away in a quiet neighborhood just north of Duke University Medical Center. This unique and lovingly maintained home blends warmth and creativity, offering both comfortable living and flexible possibilities for the next owner. From the moment you arrive, you'll be charmed by the cottage feel—hardwood floors, large windows, and a welcoming front porch. Inside, enjoy thoughtfully updated spaces throughout, including hardwoods, fresh paint, new light fixtures, and a renovated mudroom that adds extra living space and functionality. The updated kitchen includes updated counters, a stainless steel stove and dishwasher, and beautifully coordinated finishes. The home's flexible layout allows for a potential short-term rental setup or private guest suite, complete with a kitchenette and proven rental history. Whether you'd like to continue generating income or enjoy the home entirely as a single-family residence, the design offers privacy and versatility. Step outside into a true backyard sanctuary—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Enjoy peaceful evenings around the fire pit, tend to your garden beds, or rinse off in the outdoor hot/cold solar shower. Thoughtful improvements continue outdoors, including new patios and walkways with Chapel Hill gravel (just like Duke Gardens!), fencing, a pergola, and professional drainage. Major updates provide peace of mind: new roof in 2018, upgraded electrical panel, encapsulated crawlspace with dehumidifier, newer HVAC and ductwork, newer plumbing, and newer windows throughout most of the home. Two garages, outdoor lighting, and abundant storage complete the picture. A truly special property filled with character and comfort—ready for its next creative owner to make it their own!
