About this home

Wild about Watson! Picture this: you're sitting on your cozy front porch drinking your first cup of coffee in the morning. The cool, fall breeze wisps past as you hear your dogs frolic in the huge fenced side yard. You wave to the neighbors walking the block. You need to have them over again soon- last month's game night on the back deck was a hit. Or maybe hit up a Bulls game with them today. It's only a ten minute drive to the ballpark, after all. The crisp, fall air brings you back inside for a moment to layer up. As you enter, you pause for a moment to appreciate the Durham Building Company's thoughtful open concept design. How lucky were you to find a newer, low-maintenance home that still has so much character and charm?! You head into your first-floor primary bedroom, leading to your deep walk-in closet and pull out your favorite sweater. Fall is finally here and you couldn't be cozier!

About Northeast

Hills

Northeast Hills, located between Duke Regional Hospital and the Museum of Life and Science, is a residential and commercial Durham neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a wooded, creek-cut terrain. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Roxboro Street (US-501) and Carver Street corridor, where small storefronts, service counters, and everyday errands set a steady rhythm. Brick ranches and split-levels sit back from the road on generous lots, while busier edges carry local traffic and retail. Nearby green space and trails shape an outdoors-forward routine. Duke Regional Hospital and the Museum of Life and Science act as major anchors for daily life and weekend plans.
