Property Description
Beyond the stone garden path lies the property's extraordinary surprise: a detached artist's studio with dramatic doors that open to a unique mosaic patio. A mini-split system, full bathroom, kitchenette, parquet flooring, wood burning stove and unfinished storage room allows guests to reflect as they linger and gaze at the peaceful gardens. Designed for creativity and possibility, this remarkable space invites everything from artistic pursuits to a private writing retreat. Studio building age is unknown.
Located within the annexation to the Morehead Hill Historic District, the property offers historic character without local historic-district restrictions on exterior changes. Qualifying rehabilitation projects may be eligible for historic tax incentives, subject to applicable requirements. Just minutes from Duke University and downtown Durham's celebrated restaurants, craft breweries, eclectic bars, and vibrant cultural scene, this home offers a rare balance of privacy, inspiration, and connection.
A home with history, a garden with soul, and a studio that leaves room for possibility. For those who value originality over the ordinary, this peaceful home invites you to make something beautiful of your own.
