Welcome to 3132A Dixon Road, where you'll find this Durham Building Company jewel perfectly perched along the street. Durham Building Company "understands the importance of maintaining the charm and character of a community, carefully considering the surrounding architecture when designing its homes. " This home truly packs it all in, with a rocking-chair front porch perfect for visiting with friends and a back deck ideal for grilling and enjoying farm-fresh vegetables from the raised garden beds. The conditioned, detached garage was designed as an extension of the home and has been used for the seller's business, offering flexible space that can easily be converted back to a fully operational garage. The thoughtful use of the property, combined with its prime and convenient location, makes this home truly special. With a brand-new refrigerator that conveys and a move-in-ready interior, 3132A Dixon Road is ready to make you feel at home from the moment you walk through the front door.
Dixon Road, located between U.S. 70 (Holloway Street) and I-885, is a residential and light-industrial Durham neighborhood with modest mid-century houses and warehouse-lined corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Holloway Street and Miami Boulevard junction, where auto shops, small storefronts, and freight traffic set a workaday rhythm. Nearby community pillars include The Fruit, Durham Central Park, and the Durham Performing Arts Center (DPAC). Streets mix ranch homes, duplexes, and pocket yards with wide rights-of-way and long sightlines. Green breaks appear at Twin Lakes Park and along the Ellerbe Creek Trail. Downtown’s grid sits to the west, while industrial parcels and rail-adjacent blocks shape the eastern edge.
