Neighborhood
Old North Durham is one of the original Downtown Durham neighborhoods.

You’re only a few blocks from award-winning Cocoa Cinnamon, Geer St. Garden, Hutchins Garage, Motorco Music Hall, Durty Bull Brewery, Corpse Reviver and the Blue Note with live music. Walk to the Farmer’s Market on Saturday, jog to East Campus, or take yourself on a progressive food tour through downtown and back! You will feel far from the bustle, but you can’t find a better location to relax between activities.
Access
You will have the whole house to yourselves, including the generous fenced back yard and off-street parking for up to 2 cars.
