Property Description
OFFER DEADLINE: Friday, 09/11 at 5 PM! Full of character and endless potential, this 1961 brick ranch sits on a spacious corner lot in a growing pocket of Durham. Original hardwood floors run throughout, and fresh paint gives the interior a clean, welcoming feel from the moment ya'll walk in. The home is currently set up as a two bedroom, one and a half bath, with a separate dining room, living room, and kitchen that offer great flow for everyday living. There's a full private wing that could easily become a primary suite, or the layout could be reconfigured to create a third bedroom—options that make this a truly unique home for the right buyer. Storage is abundant throughout, and a covered carport adds everyday convenience. Outside is where this property really shines. The large, wooded lot offers tons of room for gardening, a separate storage shed, and plenty of space to create your own backyard oasis. This home needs some updating and is being sold as-is, but with a prime corner lot in an up-and-coming area of Durham, it's a fantastic opportunity to build equity and make it your own.
