Description of 905 Washington St, Durham, NC 27701

Listing details for 905 Washington St, Durham, NC 27701 : WELCOME back to WASHINGTON! This light-filled 4 bed/2 bath 1900's mill house was lovingly brought back to life in 2017 (new roof/gutters, flooring, int/ext paint) but you’ll do a double take when you see that the appliances and HVAC were replaced in 2018. Refinished heart pine floors on the main level and bead board ceilings in the upstairs bedrooms add vintage charm. Relax on the front porch or gather w/friends by the fire pit out back. No time machine needed to enjoy this downtown Durham urban oasis.
