Welcome to 4503 Cumberland Drive! Our family has enjoyed living in this home and neighborhood since 2006. After having lived in many places around the country, we have found the Colony at American Village to be one of the warmest, friendliest communities we have had the privilege to live in. Most importantly, it was a great place to raise our children, who are now successful young professional adults.
You may be wondering, why are you leaving if you love this house and neighborhood so much? Over the past 12 years we have cultivated many lasting friendships, but as empty nesters, it is time for us to move on to our next chapter in life. While we have a few reasons, first and foremost, this house is too large for us at this point and believe it is ready for a new family to enjoy. We want to downsize, and if possible, have first floor living. That said, we love this zip code so much, our home search keeps leading us back here. Who knows? Maybe we will be neighbors if we find the perfect home right here!
Our children enjoyed the convenient location, their experience at area high schools and access to Durham's vibrant downtown. Cultural and athletic activities at nearby Duke and UNC are plentiful and offer something for everyone. For Gail, an avid runner, the safe neighborhood and nearby hiking and running trails in Duke Forest and along the Eno River have been a dream come true.
Please feel free to look around, and ask us any questions you have about this house and life in Durham. We love it and believe you will, too!
