Adjust your sunglass frames and pop into this ideally located looker on James! 0.3 miles to the Boot Room, Beer Study, Q Shack, Nuvo Taco, Thai Cafe - all the tasty names. Less than 3 miles from downtown so you can also attend each and every Bulls game. Effortless floor plan with ample space to entertain. Bright and cheery living space just itching for friends and a night of board games (and sneeky big under stair storage for when it's time to tuck them out of frame). Practically laid out kitchen with a corner pantry space and glass front cabinets for your mug collection to tame. And the paneled dishwasher is as fancy as high end kitchen designers claim. Bedrooms are lavishly large and sized nearly the same. Backyard space is private and helpfully sized for any grilling and chilling aims. And newer HVAC means even in the hot summer months no reason for family members to complain! You owe yourself a visit to this one, so fire it's a shame MLS won't let us use emoji flames.

What happens when a fully renovated home meets a glorious backyard and a walkable Lakewood location? Some call it magic. I call it where do I sign? Cute as a button from the curb, this home has even more to show off inside. A cozy front entry opens to a sunny sitting room, and the easy flow carries you into a beautifully renovated kitchen with butcher block counters, an eat-in peninsula, thoughtful storage, and a walk-in pantry. The kitchen opens to a spacious dining and family room, where a wall of new Andersen windows frames the leafy view. Fair warning: you may forget what you came into the room for. And then there's the backyard. The screened porch leads to a yard so expansive it could pass for your own private park. A custom covered deck and a second, uncovered deck give you plenty of options for morning coffee, dinner with friends, or simply sitting among the mature trees and doing absolutely nothing. Highly recommended. Upstairs, the primary wing brings more new Andersen windows, a fully renovated bathroom, and a custom closet worthy of a Selling Sunset cameo. Two additional bedrooms share another beautifully renovated bath. With newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint inside and out, and natural light at every turn, this move-in-ready Lakewood charmer gives you room to breathe—just a stroll from the places you love.

Urban when you want it, peaceful when you need it. Tucked into Morehead Hill, 1022 Manor Way offers the best of both: generous living spaces and an unexpectedly serene, green setting, all within easy reach of downtown Durham. The American Tobacco Trail provides a direct connection to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, American Tobacco Campus and DPAC, while Duke is just minutes away. Yet at home, with a spacious backyard, Third Fork Creek in the distance and nature all around, the city can feel miles away. The wide Veranda floor plan is especially distinctive and desirable, positioned horizontally to create broad, open living spaces rather than the narrow layout typical of many townhomes. As an end unit, natural light pours through oversized Marvin windows clad in custom Hunter Douglas shades, while 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and upgraded interior and exterior lighting add warmth and polish throughout. The generous entertaining kitchen features cabinetry extending to the ceiling and a Wolf rangetop. A ground-floor ensuite, true two-car garage with epoxy flooring and a slat-wall storage system, private driveway, and an elevator connecting every level make the home as functional as it is beautiful. Outdoor living is a huge part of what makes this home so special, with two balconies plus an extraordinary rooftop retreat. Designed as a true extension of the living space, the rooftop offers multiple areas for lounging and dining, skyline views and a high-end custom outdoor kitchen with Challenger cabinetry, an oversized quartz countertop, 24-inch Dometic refrigerator and built-in 38-inch Delta Heat gas grill. During baseball season, settle in and watch the Friday-night fireworks from the ballpark without ever leaving home. And then there's the backyard. Step outside and the city seems to disappear. A large, peaceful green space stretches toward Third Fork Creek, with cardinals, hummingbirds, rabbits, hawks, fireflies and even the occasional groundhog making regular appearances. Coffee with cardinals in the morning. Lucky Strike and city lights at night. Downtown Durham living rarely offers this much space, quiet, nature and connection to the city.
