About this property

Guess House: 4BR Farmhouse near Duke and Downtown with Fire Pit and Backyard!

Welcome to Your Home Away From Home. This is a beautifully maintained classic farmhouse style house, where historic charm meets modern convenience.

The home features 4 comfortable bedrooms (2 upstairs and 2 downstairs), one full bathroom on the first floor, and ~1,836 sq ft of living space.

You’ll find original hardwood floors, built-in bookcases, and exposed ceiling beams that add character to the upper-level bedrooms. The layout is flexible and works well for families, groups of friends, students, professionals, or hybrid stays.

Step outside to your private oasis: a screened porch off the main living area, a spacious deck, and a fenced yard with a fire pit perfect for relaxing outdoor evenings. Whether you’re unwinding with a book or roasting s'mores, the outdoor space is a major plus.

Located just minutes from Duke University, medical centers, and downtown Durham, this home offers both peace and accessibility. Whether your stay is short or long term, you’ll find comfort and convenience here.
