Property Description
Welcome to 806 Parker, a charming bungalow nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of the Morehead Hill Historic District. Built in 1910, this home beautifully blends its original character with modern updates. As you step onto the deep front porch and enter the spacious foyer, you'll be captivated by the high ceilings, period woodwork, and the meticulous care this home has received over the past century. The original wood flooring, which extends throughout most of the home, is simply stunning. Off the grand entryway, a large living room welcomes you with its high ceilings, decorative fireplace, and built-in bookcase. Across the hall, a generous bedroom offers ample storage and soaring ceilings. French doors lead you into the expansive eat-in kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, spacious pantry, and a remarkable built-in display cabinet—a true gem in this space. The primary bedroom boasts a decorative fireplace, hardwood flooring, and an ensuite bathroom with tiled shower. Natural light floods the home through the many windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The back hallway leads to a cozy bedroom near the charming secondary bathroom, complete with a clawfoot tub and modern vanity. The third bedroom and second bathroom (160 sqft total) do not meet current ceiling height requirements. A stacked washer and dryer make laundry convenient. Step outside to the new Trex deck, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors, which seamlessly extends the living space. The private yard offers a wonderful area for gardening and a great place to play. The location is simply unbeatable for enjoying the best of Durham: just 0.3 miles to Morehead Montessori, 1.5 miles to Duke University, less than a mile to downtown Durham's vibrant shops, restaurants, and the world-class DPAC, and only 0.5 mile to the Durham Co-op grocery store. Experience this exceptional home in the wonderful Morehead Hill neighborhood, and embrace the chance to become a part of its enduring history.
