This three-bedroom, two-bath Gardener's delight sits on a half-acre lot in South Durham's Penrith neighborhood (no HOA). The interior has been thoughtfully updated, and the yard is unlike anything else on the market. The National Wildlife Federation has certified it as a Wildlife Habitat. Hardwoods shade most of the lot, keeping the yard easily ten degrees cooler in summer than nearby yards with fewer trees. Dogwoods and redbuds bloom in spring. Magnolia, gardenia, and daphne perfume the air throughout the year, each carrying its own sweet, heady note that drifts across the yard as you walk through. Young paw paw trees are establishing themselves, and the fig trees produce tons of delicious figs. River oats sway along the edges, and pollinator and herb gardens feed bees, butterflies, and the gardener. Brush a sprig of rosemary or thyme and the scent stays on your hands. A frog pond rounds out the habitat, and on warm nights the chorus is the best sound in the house. The bird list runs long. Red-shouldered hawks and Cooper's hawks hunt the canopy. Owls call after dark. Bluebirds, warblers, hummingbirds, and woodpeckers including the pileated visit the feeders and trees. Butterfly species rotate through the gardens all season, including the Zebra Swallowtail, whose only host plant is the paw paw. The mature canopy and layered plantings also create real privacy. The yard feels tucked away rather than on display, and the back yard is fenced for pets. The new deck is generously sized and looks out over a garden and a spot for a swing. A separate pad holds the grill. The house itself is move-in ready. The HVAC is new in 2023, paired with a smart thermostat and upgraded insulation that keep utility bills low year-round. The roof carries a fifty-year shingle. A recently renovated bathroom rounds out recent work. An EV charger is installed. The refrigerator, dishwasher, washer, dryer, grill, shed, and compost bins all convey. Commutes are fast and convenient to RTP, Duke, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh. Southpoint shopping sits minutes away. The neighborhood has its own access point to the American Tobacco Trail, so biking, walking, and running start at your door. The Penrith neighborhood has no HOA. The unique natural features of this yard are yours to enjoy. The trees, the pond, the birds, and the butterflies took years to establish, and they will reward you with quiet mornings, lively afternoons, and a kind of beauty that grows richer each season. Sellers request highest and best offers be submitted by 5 PM on Sunday May 3rd.
