Welcome to this exquisite 4-bedroom, 3-bath home gracefully situated on a private 0.53-acre cul-de-sac lot in Durham's desirable Carriage Hill. Showcasing classic brick-accent curb appeal and a charming wraparound porch, this move-in ready retreat features brand-new carpet on the upper level. Inside, a light-filled layout seamlessly connects the open kitchen, breakfast area, and family room with a cozy gas fireplace, complemented by a versatile main-floor guest bedroom. Upstairs, retreat to the spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet and spa-like bath featuring a separate shower and deep soaking tub. A generous bonus room currently used as a 5th bedroom, while the unfinished walk-up attic (plumbed for an additional full bath) presents incredible potential to expand. Step outside to relax on the tranquil screened porch or entertain in the level, flat, fenced backyard surrounded by mature hardwood trees. Ideally positioned for ultimate convenience, you are just minutes from major highways, UNC, Duke University, top healthcare centers, and local dining.
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.
