Description of 5718 Russell Rd, Durham, NC 27712

Listing details for 5718 Russell Rd, Durham, NC 27712 : WOW! Do not let the age fool you. This cute house has been beautifully updated & maintained. You will feel that you are in a much newer home as you notice all the stylish updates from the barn doors to the laundry room, remodeled baths & kitchen (granite countertops, white cabinets and stainless steel appliances), modern light fixtures and even new hardware on doors. Your wallet will appreciate the savings from the new windows (2022). The downstairs bedroom & private bath could be anything... study, play area for young kids or a home office. How will you use?
