Charming Trinity Park Garden Home Walkable to Duke

Step into comfort and character in our 1920s home, nestled in Durham’s iconic Trinity Park. Just over a mile from Downtown and minutes from Duke, this 2,500 sq ft retreat features light-filled rooms and rich architectural details. Unwind in our lush, professionally designed gardens that offer rare privacy and beauty in the heart of the city. We can’t wait to share it with you! The space Welcome to your home away from home! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality for your short-term stay. Whether you're in town for work, play, or a little of both, you’ll find everything you need to relax and recharge. The primary bedroom features a plush king-size bed and a private en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The second bedroom offers a comfortable queen-size bed, and the third room is a dedicated, quiet office with a lovely view of the garden—ideal for working remotely behind a closed door. Need extra sleeping space? Just let us know, and we’ll happily set up the full-size futon in the office. The hallway bathroom, conveniently located between the queen room and office, includes a full bathtub for soaking or bathing little ones. The fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook at home, and multiple dining options let you enjoy meals your way—gather around the formal dining table for six, enjoy a sunny breakfast in the garden-view nook, kick back in the sunroom with your favorite shows streaming on the smart TV, or head outside to the screened garden porch for a cozy, alfresco meal. Step outside and experience the true highlight of the home: the stunning outdoor spaces designed by Dick White of Duke Gardens. From the picture-perfect front porch—with a classic swing and rocking chairs—to the shaded, tree-lined backyard, every corner of the garden invites you to unwind. The detached screened porch is a guest favorite—a peaceful retreat for reading, writing, or simply savoring your morning coffee. Traveling with a furry friend? We’re dog-friendly! Our fully fenced backyard is a safe and happy space for pups to roam, just like our dog Ollie loves to do when we’re in town. We welcome one or two well-behaved dogs with payment of the listed pet fee—please reach out if you have other types of pets you'd like to bring. Whether you're here for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, this inviting, well-maintained home offers a peaceful retreat with the convenience and comfort you’re looking for. Guest access Guests have full access to the entire home, including the serene backyard and cozy screened porch—ideal for enjoying your morning coffee or an evening wind-down. You'll enter through the sunroom door, equipped with keyless entry for easy, flexible check-in. The home is single-story and easy to navigate, with just one step up into the sunroom and another into the main living area. The driveway fits 2–3 cars, and there's plenty of additional street parking. Please note: the backyard shed is locked for garden care storage and not accessible during your stay.
