Property description
4 Bedroom Transitional Colonial Home on a corner lot in Rockwood. It has both a verdant, forest setting & is mere blocks from some of Durham's best food & services! LOTS of space in & out! Great natural light. Dynamic cathedral-ceilinged entrance opens to the stairwell, Family & Dining. The Kitchen & Eat-In area open to the Living Room. Check out the wonderful dual level screened-in porches & deck, at rear. Upstairs has 4 bedrooms. The Master Bedroom also has hi ceilings, a WIC & private bathroom. On top of the nearly 2,000 square feet of living space on the main & second levels, the home has a +/- 850 sq ft 3-room basement w/ tall ceilings. The basement is currently used for media, fitness & entertaining uses. The fenced backyard has a patio, its own screened porch & room for gardening or additional storage. Nearly new washer & dryer in the utility room between the Kitchen & one-car garage. The property backs up to Rockwood Park. Rockwood Mall is just beyond that. Too many Rockwood-area "hotspots" to name here. The home is a quick drive to Downtown, the New South Square + all major Highways.
