Investor alert. Prime opportunity in one of Durham's most desirable locations. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath renovation project is already taken down to the studs with major rough-ins completed -- saving significant time and upfront costs. Framing and key infrastructure improvements are already in place, allowing investors to move straight into the finish phase. Ideal for fix-and-flip, long-term rental, or resale. Strong area comps and high demand make this a compelling value-add opportunity. Bring your vision and complete the project to maximize returns. Property sold as-is. Cash or renovation financing preferred.
Long Meadow, located between Guess Road and North Roxboro Street, is a residential and wooded Durham neighborhood with curving streets and a low-key, tucked-away feel. The neighborhood reads as mid-century ranches and later infill set back behind mature trees, with sidewalks giving way to green edges. The character concentrates around the Guess Rd & Horton Rd corridor, where everyday errands cluster in a compact strip of local storefronts and cafés. Community pillars nearby include The Glass Jug Beer Lab (Durham), Motorco Music Hall, and the Durham Farmers’ Market for weekend rhythms. Outdoor time centers on the trails and boardwalks at West Point on the Eno Park. Downtown Durham’s galleries and restaurants sit a short drive south, keeping the pace calm at home and lively when wanted.
