About this home
This one is special. This end-unit townhome offers something you almost never see in this community — a full basement functioning as a third bedroom — giving you a rare 3-bedroom floorplan in a neighborhood where most units top out at two. If you've been waiting for extra space and privacy in Hope Valley Farms, this is it. Step inside to fresh new paint throughout and gorgeous engineered hardwood floors flowing through the main living areas. The main level features a focal-point fireplace in the living room, a convenient half bath, and upgraded lighting that gives every room a warm, elevated feel. The kitchen opens right out to a brand-new deck, perfect for morning coffee or evening dinners overlooking the trees. Downstairs, the finished basement serves as a spacious third bedroom, complete with its own fireplace — a rare and cozy retreat perfect for guests, a private suite, or flexible living space. Upstairs, both bedrooms are en suite: the primary suite offers a private bath retreat, and the guest bedroom has its own en suite as well, making this layout perfect for guests or multigenerational living. Out back, the home backs up to a wooded area, offering a peaceful, private setting that's hard to find in a townhome community. Location-wise, this South Durham gem is just a quick drive to Research Triangle Park (RTP), typically 10-15 minutes, and about 15-20 minutes to Downtown Durham for dining, shopping, and entertainment. You're also close to Southpoint Mall, Duke Health, and easy access to I-40 and NC-55.
Hope Valley, located between University Drive and NC-751 (Hope Valley Road), is a residential and golf-course Durham neighborhood with rolling fairways and mature tree canopy. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Hope Valley Road and Garrett Road corridor, where local errands and a low-key streetscape set the daily rhythm. The Hope Valley Country Club anchors the landscape with classic greens and a long-established clubhouse presence. Curving streets frame mid-century ranches and traditional brick homes, with deep setbacks and shaded sidewalks. Woodcroft’s trail network and the American Tobacco Trail add a nature-forward counterpoint to the manicured blocks. Southpoint’s dining and retail cluster sits nearby for a broader mix of local and regional stops.
