Description
Some houses check boxes. This one tells a story. Tucked away on a private flag lot in East Durham, house C at 2626 Harvard Ave is new construction done right -- affordable, thoughtfully built, and finished with selections that punch well above its price point. It was crafted by a local builder who genuinely sweated the details, and it comes backed by a one-year warranty & 2 designated parking spots! A Rare Kind of Privacy - The long private drive does something remarkable in the urban tier: it makes the outside world disappear. Massive oak trees line the approach, and by the time you park, you'll wonder how something this quiet exists this close to downtown. Only you and the people you invite will ever find this place -- and that's exactly the point. Built to Feel Like Home - Step inside to an open yet defined floor plan anchored by site-finished hardwood floors, clean cabinetry, and simple, intentional selections throughout. Nothing overdesigned, nothing overlooked. Two generous bedrooms, a well-appointed bath, a living room ready for your next gathering, and a kitchen that will actually inspire you to cook. Location That Works - East Durham puts you exactly where you want to be -- 2 miles from downtown Durham, half a mile from Ideal's, 15 minutes from RDU, and right on the I-885 connector for easy access to the entire Triangle. You get the convenience of the city with the quiet of a neighborhood that's still finding its footing. That transition -- from urban energy to settled calm -- is something you really have to feel in person. The Bottom Line - At this price point, in this market, this is one of the best new construction opportunities in Durham. You might think that's bias talking. The only way to prove it wrong is to come see it for yourself. *Schedule your tour today.*
