Few homes in Durham combine skyline views and true walkability — 110 Chestnut does both. Built in 2016, this modern farmhouse overlooks Downtown Durham and is just minutes from the Bulls Stadium, DPAC, Press Coffee, and the American Tobacco Trail. From its elevated position, the city glows at sunset and sparkles on game nights — best enjoyed from the home's multiple outdoor spaces, including a spacious rear deck and private screened balcony off the primary suite. Inside, 9-foot ceilings and blonde hardwood floors define a bright, open main level anchored by a fireplace and a well-appointed kitchen with stone countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range with hood, and a generous island — with a sliding barn door adding architectural texture. Upstairs, the generously sized primary suite features balcony access and an en suite bath with double vanity. Two additional bedrooms and a flexible landing — ideal for a home office, Peloton, or reading nook — add versatility. Recent updates include a new roof (2024) and new carpet. A side-loading garage with conveying gym equipment offers storage and a turnkey fitness option. Downtown Durham isn't just nearby — it's part of your everyday life.
