THE SPACE

From the moment you arrive, you'll be impressed by the abundance of natural light, the modern yet relaxed aesthetic of the home, and all of the special touches we've put throughout the home.

Living Room:
The sun-drenched open-concept living room is a great place to hang out and relax and play records, play the piano, try out the OCULUS 2 VR headset and controllers, play board games, or snuggle up with fresh-popped popcorn and gumballs and watch your favorite shows and movies on the 65" Smart TV with Netflix, HBO, and more. Turn on the electric fireplace for warmth or just an elevated look and feel. The living room has seating for 8, plus two more seats at the kitchen island. The antique piano desk functions as a desk and also has a professional keyboard with weighted keys and a pedal inside. You're able to disconnect the piano if little fingers can't keep their hands off it :) The gumball machine takes quarters that you'll be reimbursed for. We did this intentionally to keep the little ones in check :) All proceeds go to charity.

The living and dining room look out onto the back porch and fenced backyard so the kids can play while the adult relax inside.

Kitchen & Dining Area:
The newly-built modern chef's kitchen has stainless steel appliances and a bespoke white glass refrigerator that has a beverage center and makes 2 different sizes of ice. We do our best to stock the refrigerator with fresh food like milk, eggs, and butter to help get you started.

Enjoy unforgettable meals around the dining table comfortably seats 6 and can fit 8. The island seats another two. Both are also great places to work!

The kitchen has everything you need, from an air fryer, microwave, blender, toaster, and kettle, to pots and pans, dishes and silverware for adults and kids, drinking glasses, wine glasses, champagne glasses, coffee cups, knives, cutting boards, bakeware, cooking utensils, cookbooks, and more.

We do our best to keep the pantry stocked with essentials like cereal, oatmeal, mac and cheese, rice, protein bars, snacks, oil, salt and pepper, spices, cooking oil, and more to help get you started.

Our famous COFFEE BAR comes with an espresso machine, a Kurig that brews 12 cups of coffee and single K cups of coffee, a french press, and a frother. We also provide assorted teas, including freshly ground Matcha tea, hot chocolate, and vanilla and caramel syrup. We also provide premium ground coffee and ground espresso beans. In the drawers, you'll find organic K cups and half-and-half, sugar, splenda, and Biscoff cookies!

Under the kitchen sink, you'll find extra dishwasher pods, trash bags, and cleaning supplies.

Internet:
Ultra high speed G-O-O-G-L-E Fiber Internet makes it easy for everyone to enjoy all of their devices simultaneously.

Primary Bedroom:
You'll be blown away by the 20 feet high soaring ceilings in the primary bedroom. The thick memory foam king bed comes with tons of comfy pillows and luxury linens. This bedroom has a swinging egg chair, a PILATES reformer, yoga equipment, its own Nespresso coffee bar, a 65" smart TV, and a large desk with a 27" iMac. In the generous walk-in closet, you'll find bath robes, a bolted-in safe, extra sheets, pillows, blankets, and towels. You'll also have access to baby items, such as a pack n play.

Primary Bathroom:
There is a generous ensuite bathroom that boasts a rainfall shower with three shower heads and a private water closet. In the bathroom, you'll find premium shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and hand soap, as well as Q-tips, cotton balls, and makeup remover pads. You'll be provided with plenty of fluffy towels.

Bedroom 2:
This upstairs bedroom has an ultra-comfortable, ultra-thick Casper mattress, luxury sheets, and a ceiling with the coolest bird wallpaper you've ever seen! The room also has a generous closet and a TV for winding down at the end of the day. Turn on or off the unique LED light installation with the click of a button.

Bedroom 3:
This downstairs bedroom can be set up as a king bed, 2 twin beds, or one twin/daybed. This room has its own TV, a desk, the OCULUS, podcasting equipment, and hangers to put your clothes on.

Bedroom 4:
This upstairs bedroom has an ultra-comfortable, thick memory foam queen mattress, luxury sheets, its own large smart TV, a desk with vintage cameras on top, and a mattress with extra sheets, towels, and hangers.

Guest Bathroom:
The upstairs bedrooms share a full bathroom that has a shower, tub, and plenty of amenities to make you feel right at home, like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, Q tips, cotton pads, and makeup remover pads. After a long day of fun, enjoy a relaxing bath with the provided bath salts. We also have a baby bath that can be used in this bathroom to bathe babies.

Powder Room:
There is a beautifully designed powder room downstairs between the kitchen and Bedroom 3. You'll have towels, soap, and extra toilet paper.

Porch:
The porch off of the back of the house has a beautiful seating area for four people, as well as a relaxing hanging bench. Enjoy the sights of beautiful flowers as you overlook the backyard.

Backyard:
The spacious, fenced-in backyard has a fire pit with six chairs, an outdoor dining table with an umbrella and six chairs, a relaxing hammock, and a BBQ. We even provide outdoor games! The gate is locked for your privacy and enjoyment.

Work Spaces:
There are desks throughout the house. There is one in the living room, one in Bedroom 3, and one in the primary bedroom. Enjoy blazing fast 1G internet for all of your streaming needs.

Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging:
We have a 220V outlet and a 48a charger for use with regular EVs and Teslas alike. Just clip on the Tesla adapter.

Your health is our priority, so we provide complimentary access to a nearby gym with an indoor pool, sauna, spa, and more, for the first seven days of your stay. For guests who are staying with us for one month or more, we provide complimentary access for your entire stay.

Baby Equipment:
We provide a high chair, a pack n' play, a crib, a baby gate, a baby bath, plug covers, corner covers for the coffee table, kids' dishes, and more to keep babies and children safe and comfortable. You can unplug the piano if they're having a little too much fun with it, you can close and lock the record player, and the gumball machine takes quarters so that should give you some peace! The gumball machine is relatively light so you can always move it into a closet if it becomes too much of a distraction for little ones.

About the host

Hosted by Jill

Host profile image
Hi! I'm from Los Angeles and have lived in NY, Florence, and Sydney. I love traveling, and I spend most summers in Europe. I love investing and creating beautiful, unique spaces and experiences that inspire a sense of calm and joy. That's why I started Lagom Home (lagomhome.co).

Why they chose this property

Durham is a beautifully diverse, artsy town, sort of like Brooklyn. Our street is quiet yet only 5 minutes from downtown and Duke! Our neighbors are lovely and keep to themselves, and if you give them a friendly smile and wave, you can expect them to do the same! Our neighborhood is a mix of modern homes and historic and older homes. The area is rapidly changing.

The home is just 5 minutes from Downtown Durham, Duke, and the American Tobacco Trail, 10 minutes to RTP, and 15 minutes to the airport-- this is the place to be! You can walk to the American Tobacco trail and it's a quick 1.3 mile Uber or drive to the Durham Bulls athletic Park, the Durham Performing Arts Center, and some of the best restaurants and nightlife in the area. You may even see a scooter around the neighborhood you're welcome to grab.

What makes this property unique

The design was inspired by some of my favorite photographs from Architectural Digest, and then I added a bunch of special touches that I though adults and children alike would love. But don't take it from me--listen to past guests had to say!

"Jill's place is a knock-out! It is like no other. The quality of materials and attention to detail in the design of the home is outrageous. She is next-level!"
Hans, August 2023

"If you’ve ever been in a 5 stars airbnb, it’s beyond that. The amenities, the touches, the linen, the cleanliness, the materials chosen like the rugs, and there was even a big popcorn machine, a record player and well-equipped coffee stations! Really its beyond 5 stars."
-Alia, August 2023

"This is the best Airbnb in Durham that we have ever stayed at and one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had anywhere! The house is beautiful, inside and out, and has amenities that are so thoughtfully supplied that make you feel completely at home as well as make everything feel not only easy but just down right pampered. The kids LOVED the popcorn machine, bubble gum machine, fenced in backyard, etc and these things made it where we weren’t rushing to leave the house every morning to find something to do…being at the house was enjoyable and a treat in and of itself to us all. Being able to turn the rumba on before heading out for the day made keeping the place tidy seem easy, having an ample coffee and tea bar made coming home after a long day of playing something to look forward to, and the shower in the master bath, y’all…so relaxing. Jill has thought of any amenity you could need not only in the kitchen but throughout the house and it shows. We will absolutely be back."
