Welcome to 907 Proctor St, where history meets hip in the heart of Downtown Durham. Tucked away on the tree-lined streets of Morehead Hill, this 100+ year-old bungalow proves you really can have it all: character, convenience, and a killer location. One block to Morehead Montessori, a mile or less to Duke East Campus, Forest Hills Park, Highway 147, and basically all the good eats, brews, and vibes downtown Durham has to offer. The current owners gave this beauty the royal treatment in 2014 with a meticulous renovation that honored her roots — think custom millwork, replicated trim, and those swoon-worthy heart pine floors — while also bringing her firmly into the modern era. The chef's kitchen and bar (yes, with a wine fridge) set the stage for soirées, while two en-suites and three spa-worthy baths mean no-one has to fight for the best bedroom. Your living space spills out onto a 42-foot covered front porch, a screened back porch made for lazy evenings, and a private hardscaped courtyard enveloped by the detached workshop, storage shed, and one-car garage. With plenty of garden space to spare (don't miss the grapevines!), this 0.38-acre slice of downtown feels more like an estate than a city lot. Historic soul. Modern function. Unbeatable location. 907 Proctor has it all and then some. Don't miss out!
