Don't be fooled, this little bungalow lives large. Featuring hardwood floors, an updated bathroom, a sparkly new paint job, and a huge fenced-in backyard complete with mature plantings, this home is ready for its new owner.

The detached garage offers terrific storage. An easy bike ride to Duke campus.
