Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This 1930s Craftsman-style bungalow offers a live-and-work layout with character-forward interior spaces. The home includes a front parlor with fireplace, a separate dining room, and a sunny breakfast room with a wall of windows. German-board wood siding and a newer roof, gutters, and water heater support the property’s ongoing use. An unfinished, walk-out basement with concrete flooring provides additional storage or workspace potential. Outdoor space includes a large front porch and a rambling flower garden, with additional parking tucked around an older, detached garage building out back.
The property is located in Durham’s Office/Institutional, Urban Tier district. It is less than a block from Lakewood Social Restaurant, with several destinations within minutes, including Cocoa Cinnamon, Lakewood YMCA, Duke University, Durham Performing Arts Center, and Durham Bulls Ballpark.
For tenants, buyers, or operators seeking a small-scale, mixed-use setting, the configuration supports an owner-user workflow with distinct rooms that can function as office, meeting, or client-facing space. The basement and detached-garage area add practicality for storage and back-of-house operations, while the on-site parking supports day-to-day access for staff, clients, and visitors.
