1105 Horseshoe Rd, Durham, NC 27703

This house is a dead ringer for a homesteading dream. The solid two-bed, one-bath house meet any number of needs: Starter home, investment property, or as a place to downsize and live more simply. An easy first project could be restoring the hardwood floors that lie underneath the carpet. A three season room adds a bit extra usable square footage and a place for your houseplants to winter over while gaining maximum sun. The land is * just * the right size for a number of outdoor endeavors, without being unmanageable. Two nicely sized lots total just a hair under two acres, a large portion of which is cleared. Your veggie garden will be the envy of your friend group and family. The lack of tree cover means your tomato plants will get every ounce of sun available. While the house is conveniently connected to city water and sewer, the old well could be put back into action for any irrigation needs. A spacious, wired, two car garage has plenty of room for cars along with a sizable workshop off the back for your power tools. A small barn/shed towards the back of the property could house any garden overflow and set up nicely as an advanced potting shed. Future clearing of the back portion of the lot could result in additional space for a second home, or maybe just the chicken coop of your dreams. Truly, the options are somewhat limitless with no HOA peeking over your shoulder.
