Situated in the Carillon Forest neighborhood, on a large corner lot, this beautiful and spacious 5-bedroom, 2 ½-bath home is ready to be your happy place. The rocking chair front porch invites you inside a main floor that is perfect for entertaining; upon entering you will immediately find a bright, beautifully wainscoted formal dining room, perfect for holiday dinners and dinner parties with friends. The dining room flows into the capacious kitchen featuring matching stainless-steel appliances and counter space for days which will make cooking a breeze. The ample storage space provided by the pantry and abundant cabinets means all the essentials, from dry goods to dinnerware and flatware to your favorite skillet, are always close at hand.
The kitchen leads to the breakfast bar and nook, perfect for sitting down to quick meals and for gathering around the table for a Saturday morning pancake breakfast. A door on the far side of the nook leads to a screened porch and deck, ideal for enjoying your morning coffee and for spending warm evenings grilling out and relaxing with friends and family. The deck overlooks a large backyard that is perfect for playing tag, hunting for fireflies, and teaching your four-legged buddy to fetch. Back inside, the breakfast nook opens into the open and airy living room with more than enough room for hosting game night while the gas fireplace invites you to cozy up
with a hot chocolate and a good book on chilly winter evenings.
The second story boasts five bedrooms, one of which can easily be used as a den, office, game room, or home gym. The shared split bathroom features a dual vanity that is separate from the toilet and shower area to accommodate multiple people using the bathroom at once. Each of the bedrooms are roomy and offer generous closet spaces. The expansive owner’s suite features two walk-in closets, a tray ceiling with a ceiling fan, and tons of natural light. The airy en suite bathroom includes a water closet and a dual vanity with plentiful storage space but the stars are the walk-in shower and large soaking tub, catering to both busy morning routines and unwinding after a long day.
This home is an oasis from the busy daily grind although is still near the best Durham has to offer: from theatre and concerts to the newly renovated Main Public Library to fine dining. Durham Performing Arts Center and NanaSteak—next door to one another for a perfect dinner and a show date—are under 15 minutes away. The local specialty shops and restaurants in downtown Durham, as well as Durham Central Park and Durham Farmers’ Market, are similarly close by. Meanwhile, 15-501 is lined with shopping of all kinds and a diverse range of restaurants, most of which are 5-10 minutes away. For those who like to keep active, Hollow Rock Racquet &
Swim Club is a short 2-minute drive and a number of gyms and fitness centers are under 10 minutes away. Sports fans are in luck too! Durham Bulls Athletic Park, Duke University’s Cameron Indoor Stadium and Wallace Wade Stadium, and NCCU’s O’Kelly-Riddick Stadium and McDougald-McLendon Arena are all under 15 minutes away. Commuters and frequent travelers will enjoy the quick access to highways and the short travel times to UNC-Chapel Hill, Duke University, Research Triangle Park, and Raleigh-Durham International Airport. Even while being so near to some of Durham’s best amenities, this home is still perfect for nature lovers, this home is a five-minute walk to the nearest Hollow Rock Nature Park trailhead; for the more ambitious, one of the Duke Forest trails is accessible from a Hollow Rock Nature Park trail.
Sarah P. Duke Gardens is a quick 10-minute drive away and only 6 minutes in the car will take you to the Duke Lemur Center.
Welcome to your happy place.
