About the host
Hosted by Sadhya
I'm an older person! :D, but not at heart. I have been renting rooms, homes for almost 40 years, and have always enjoyed making nice spaces available for people. Professionally I am an analyst, personally I love nature and music and am addicted to audio books.
Why they chose this property
I moved to the Durham area almost 10 years ago as this was the place I wanted to live. It took me a bit to find this home, and I knew it was it when I first looked at it. The house was built in 1960, but the main floor was fully remodeled. It is so close to downtown, but is in this old-fashioned neighborhood - where no house looks like another. It bumps up to a small woods, and being so close to Duke Forest, there are owls and hawks (the screech owl is my favorite).
What makes this property unique
Just that it is an old home in a large yard in a quiet area with tons of sun. It has character, just like people as we get older. :)
