Property Description

NEW renovations just completed making this Duke Forest home better than ever! Nestled on a quiet, wooded lot in one of Durham's most coveted neighborhoods, this refreshed home offers rare privacy just minutes from Duke University, dining, and downtown Durham.

Recent upgrades include a newly renovated kitchen with fresh cabinetry, backsplash, and countertops along with a completely updated secondary bathroom. Fresh interior paint, new carpet, a new roof (2024), and a whole-house generator add peace of mind and true move-in-ready appeal. The home features an expansive walk-out basement, 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, plus a versatile bonus space currently designed as a custom walk-in closet for the primary suite - easily converted back to a bedroom or office if needed. Located just 3 miles from Duke University West Campus and Medical Center, this Duke Forest opportunity combines modern updates, a serene setting, and an unbeatable location!
