You'll know the moment you arrive, this one just says welcome home. The main floor greets you with refinished hardwoods, new hardwoods in the completely redone kitchen including new cabinets, counters, appliances, backsplash, etc. Choose from informal dining in the breakfast area or choose the formal dining for larger gatherings. The family room (and adjoining living room/study) features a brick fireplace, and glass doors leading to a spacious deck area. The center staircase is your first sighting of the updated carpet that adorns the second floor where you'll find a spacious primary suite & updated primary bath with fantastic walk custom shower and separate jetted tub. Two additional bedrooms are down the hall, and a fourth bd/bonus room option. The hall bath really pops as well having been renovated recently. Lastly, the third floor offers a private office/teenager fifth bed option. WOW!! So much here and it's been thoughtfully updated including plumbing lines also updated (no more polybutylene). The windows and roof aren't too old either! Throw in the nearly half acre setting. .. how can this one not feel like home!

Stephen's Woods, located between Hope Valley Road and Garrett Road, is a residential and wooded Durham neighborhood with curving streets and mature tree cover. The neighborhood reads as late-20th-century suburban, with brick-front homes, deep setbacks, and quiet cul-de-sacs. The character concentrates around the Garrett Road and NC-751 corridor, where grocery runs and casual errands cluster in a low-key retail strip. Nearby anchors such as Guglhupf Bakery, The Streets at Southpoint, and Durham Performing Arts Center add a strong local rhythm beyond the tree line. Greenway segments and pocket parks shape daily routines, while I-40 keeps the geography connected without changing the calm street feel.
