Property Description

WOW! FULLY RENOVATED 1952 MIDCENTURY MODERN JEWEL. WHAT A NICE GEM! SOME BUYERS ARE ONLY LOOKING FOR A NICE HOME. WHILE OTHER BUYERS OFTEN LOOK FOR MORE... THEY DESIRE a HOME that OFFERS GROWTH POTENTIAL! A HOME that OFFERS THE ABILITY TO GROW... THIS HOME ABSOLUTELY DOES! THIS HOME SITS ON A HALF AN ACRE OF LAND. IT'S only 2 MINUTES from DOWNTOWN DURHAM... A Rare Combination LOCATION AND THE ABILITY TO GROW, WOW! Maybe you aren't exactly sure how you would EVOLVE & GROW one day. A pool? Home addition? More SPACE for Love One's to be a Bit Closer. You may NOT know HOW you DESIRE to EXPAND this Magnificent Property, but isn't it TOTALLY AWESOME to know that you CAN, This Home PROUDLY OFFERS the ABILITY to EVOLVE, To GROW and To Watch this Property begin to Flourish with Design Ideas. This HOME's MAIN FLOOR has OVER 2000 square feet. Natural Hardwoods. Natural Sunlight Throughout. This Home was Meticulously Upgraded not by accident, But by DESIGN... Spacious Elegance and its an Entertainer's Dream. This HOME is a MUST SEE! Bring your Vision. This Home ALSO offers a HUGE BASEMENT. IT feels more like a LOWER LEVEL SUITE. It FEELS LIKE 2 HOUSES under 1 roof. If you walk into the LOWER LEVEL SUITE from the backyard, it has It's own FOYER with Streaming Sunlight. The LOWER LEVEL SUITE has not just ONE but TWO Ground Level Walk-Out Door Entrances. Yes, one entrance is the foyer that you already know about. Then there's a Side Door Entrance. Every time you look at the exterior Side Door and the Side Yard... The Side Door SCREAMS... POOL!. I GOTTA talk about the BACK of the HOUSE. This House has a ''BACKFRONT''. Every once in a WHILE, we see a HOME that has 2 FRONTS. The BACK of the HOUSE is so Creatively DESIGNED that it looks like it has 2 Fronts. The Lower Level Suite has OVER 1200 heated square feet. It also has what some call untapped growth potential... what some homeowners are doing is converting their garages into Studio Flatts. Currently one garage has been CONVERTED to a Workout Room. The home BOAST over 3200 square feet. Did you know there's this NEW THING that's Catching On in America... People are OPENING UP to the IDEA of what SOME call, Family Compound, Family Estates & Legacy Estates. We all have heard of the Vanderbilt's, the Duke's & Kennedy Family Estates. Now regular Buyer's want their own Legacy Estate. Buyer's now DESIRE to NOT ONLY to Buy, But to INVEST into MORE than MERELY a home... I think we can agree that BUYER's with TRUE VISION & a DESIRE to PURCHASE more than a home... They WANT a HOME with the ABILITY TO EXPAND! The ABILITY TO GROW! The ABILITY TO CREATE an EXPANDABLE Estate. How many people do you know that actually OWNS a LEGACY ESTATE. Regular Buyer's now want more... They want MORE. HALF AN ACRE of LAND .49 to be exact. 3 bedrooms are on the Main Floor. There's a ROOM in the Lower Level that some call a Lovely BEDROOM, its listed as office space. No matter what you choose to call it, it's beautiful. With 1200 square feet plus 2 big garages just how many bedrooms CAN you ENVISION creating downstairs 2,3 or 4 more? Or would you keep the downstairs the way it's currently as an Entertainer's Dream? They say that nearly every GOOD IDEA starts with a VISION and a good contractor. 120 Seconds from Downtown Durham & only Minutes away from everything in this area that is Special. A property with the ability to grow is not just a Purchase; it's an INVESTMENT into the Future and a Canvas for Endless Possibilities. It's about seeing beyond the Present and Envisioning what the Spacious Property could become. Whatever you envision here, a Family Compound, a Dream Retreat, Investment Property or a Forever Home- Finally, a Home that Offers an Open Canvas and it gives you the Freedom to Dream Big. It's now Brilliant to ENVISION an Estate. A Legacy Estate. The New American Dream. RENOVATED METICULOUS MIDCENTURY MODERN GEM and YES, It's MOVE-IN READY!
