    Room details

    Attention traveling professionals and Duke students! Rent includes all basic utilities as well as free access to laundry, parking and WiFi. Minutes from Duke University as well as dining and entertainment venues, yet the property sits on nearly 4 acres in a rural and serene setting. There is a private woods in the backyard for listening to birds and even watching deer and other fauna which frequently pass through the area. Advertised rent rate based on an annual lease. Shorter leases are negotiable on a case-by-case basis. There is a dedicated mini-fridge for guests upstairs (where your room will be). Shared areas include the kitchen, den/living room (where the fireplace is). The master bedroom and master bath as well as the "office/study" is otherwise reserved exclusively for the homeowner. Otherwise all other areas, amenities and parking are offered on a first-come, first-serve - within reason. Three rooms available in total (2 fully furnished, one partially furnished). For those wanting to rent more than one room (ie. for students/professionals who want to live together), I'm open to negotiating discounts. There is both a furnished (bed) and semi furnished room (no bed) available. So if you have a bed and a limited amount of furniture to bring that's negotiable as well. Looking for an awesome housemate to share this beautiful home in Duke Forest, between UNC Chapel Hill and Duke University. Peaceful and serene, abundant with vegetable and herb gardens. Furnished or unfurnished room available. Basic utilities and WiFi included!
