Durham, NC 27705

If you've been looking for something beyond cookie-cutter, if you've been hoping for a yard big enough to host mini concerts or sporting events and still have plenty of space for a garden, a fire pit, a frisbee golf course, and your own hiking trails through the woods, if you've been yearning for space to breathe while still being conveniently close to downtown Hillsborough, Durham, Eno River State Park and more, you might want to pinch yourself. This is not a dream. This is a rare chance to secure a standout home with plenty of land in an ideal location. Situated on nearly THREE acres, this sunny A-frame house yearns to be your own personal away-from-it-all, close-to-everything AirBnb-style getaway, a private sanctuary with plenty of room to expand and grow roots. A full wall of south facing windows offers ample light, even on overcast days. The home's deep eaves provide passive solar warmth in the winter and protection from the summer sun's heat. The lower level houses the main living space, a newly-renovated kitchen and dining area, two bedrooms, a full bathroom and laundry closet while the upper level offers a true primary suite, including a den with a fireplace, plenty of closets, a bathroom and a bedroom with vaulted ceilings and sliding glass doors that open to an expansive deck. The 1,875 sf 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house was built in 1975, a time when homes were designed and built to last. There are opportunities to make this home your own without having to start from scratch; recent upgrades include a new roof & gutters, new LVP flooring throughout the lower level (tile in the bathroom), and an updated kitchen. A brick courtyard and covered breezeway connect the home to a detached, two-car garage, and the structures are surrounded on all sides by land, land and more land. Think big bonfire nights, field parties, or maybe just the quiet solitude of a night spent camping in the wilderness of your own backyard. The main parcel is 1.5 acres, and there are two additional parcels directly behind the lot that provide an additional 1.5 acres with road frontage on Brigadoon Drive. Keep it all for yourself, or consider the possibility of sharing some with your favorite people.
