A lovely historic home, perfect for families, gardeners, grad students and professors, or medical workers. Located on a quiet street, but just blocks from Cocoa Cinnamon, the Lakewood YMCA, Honeysuckle restaurant, the Al Buehler Trail, and much more. Duke Gardens and West Campus are a mile away & Duke Hospital is a short bike ride. Wrightwood Park is just across the road, with a brand new playground, baseball field, and picnic shelter. The bright & sunny house dates from the 1940s, but has been extensively renovated. Three bedrooms are upstairs, including the primary bedroom that has extensive built-in bookcases framing a South-facing window overlooking the back yard. The kitchen (with pantry!) has all newer appliances, inc. gas range & Bosch dishwasher. Double french-doors allow the dining room to be opened up to the back deck for entertaining. The large living room contains a working wood-burning fireplace. There is another family/bonus room on the 1st floor, along with a breakfast nook off the kitchen (which is also perfect as a small office for WFH). All floors are hardwood or tile - no carpet. The wide deck overlooks a huge fenced backyard containing fig trees, raised garden beds, mature flowering camillias, and an herb garden. Behind the yard is undeveloped forest for amazing privacy. A separate screen porch on side is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee. Tons of storage is available in the full unfinished basement including a separate workshop area.
