Renovated Space Close to Downtown - A

Cute little one bed room located in East Durham.

The unit is newly renovated, brand new granite kitchen counter tops, new tiled bath room, refinished original hard wood floors, new furniture, comfortable memory foam mattress.



While we are not likely to be onsite to welcome you or during your stay, we are easily accessible and timely in responding via the booking platform website/apps between 6am to 9pm EST. We can also be reached via text message or phone call in the event of an emergency. Our phone number will be provided prior to check in.

This home is one side of a duplex. We own both sides and both are rented strictly on Airbnb. The home is located in East Durham, close to downtown and gentrifying.

Durham is a diverse and ever changing city. If this is your first time to Durham, please be aware that you will see people of all walks of life. There are many renovated homes nearby and you will find most local residents to be friendly. Please be courteous and respectful to all neighbors.


Please park in the driveway to the left. Please enter the first time up the front steps and use the door on the left (unit A). A secondary door is located off the side of the property for easy access to the driveway if you are carrying items but we only provide exterior access to the front door. **If you open the side door, please ensure it is locked each time when leaving.

The door uses the August Home smart lock and can be accessed by sending us your cellphone information prior to check in. Once you provide your cellphone and we add your number, you will receive a text message with additional instructions on how to download the app. Upon arrival to the front door, simply open the August Home app and press the circle to unlock the front door (the phone will sense the door lock via Bluetooth). We will also send you a unique pin pad code either as a backup or for primary use if you prefer not to download the door lock app.

In the event that technology fails, we have a backup lockbox hidden on site for emergency access.

Please note there are steps up the front porch to enter the house. Once inside, everything is on a single level. There are security cameras on the outside corners and front porch.



This space is the left side of a duplex separated by a center wall and accessed via a private entrance. The entire space is yours and no interior spaces are shared.

Once inside, the property opens to a living room with a couch, coffee table and smart tv where you can access your streaming services. The living room is open to the kitchen with seating for two, new stainless steel appliances and basic pots, pans, cutlery, etc.

In a closet within the kitchen, you will find the laundry area equipped with a stackable washing machine and dryer.

Located at the rear of the home, the bedroom has a closet space and comfortable queen bed and privacy blackout curtains for a comfortable night's sleep. Bathroom access is through the bedroom and contains a full sized tub/shower combo.

This location is central to many attractions.

You can check the Durham transportation website for the local bus route and other transportation options.

Most guests opt to bring a car. Free parking for two cars is available onsite in the left side driveway.

To ensure transparency and clear expectations up front, PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION BEFORE BOOKING:

- The house is located in East Durham, a gentrifying and diverse neighborhood. You will see a mixture of new construction in East Durham as well lower income households and families of all ages and sizes. There are people here from all walks of life. please keep this in mind when booking if you feel uncomfortable around others that may look different or come from different backgrounds. This is our most affordable home. If you are looking for something in a more established upscale neighborhood, please also browse our other listings by clicking into our profile.

- There is no cable tv (streaming only) and no tv in the bedroom.

- We are pet friendly BUT all of our guests do not have pets or appreciate pet hair. Therefore, we charge an extra $57 pet cleaning fee that is passed on entirely to our cleaning crew. This ensures that they spend the extra time removing any pet hair from linens and towels, spend extra time cleaning baseboard trim, wiping fan blades, cleaning HVAC filters, etc. If you do not select "Add Pet" when booking and you stay with a pet, the $57 cleaning fee will be requested from you at checkout. Please select Add Pet in your initial booking to avoid this interaction.

- We absolutely prohibit any and all smoking and drug use at our properties. This behavior makes it extremely difficult to turnover the unit for a new guest likely arriving the same day of your departure. If we find that you have smoked in our property, there will be an extra $200 cleaning fee, you will receive a negative review, and you will not be able to book at our properties in the future. This is a non-negotiable. Do not book if you plan to smoke.

- No parties allowed or loud music after 8pm. Many of our properties are connected duplexes and out of courtesy for neighbors, we ask that there be no gatherings or loud music or unauthorized guests not listed on the reservation. If family or friends are stopping by, please kindly let us know ahead of time .
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Perfect spot, just as described

We had a wonderful stay here. Everything was clean and tidy, the AC worked great, and the check in process was effortless. Wonderful communication with the host, we will definitely stay here again when we’re in the area. Can’t recommend this spot enough!

This location was absolutely fine for the amount paid. It was clean and secure. Access was easy and owner communication was very quick! The space itself is a little sparse. It could definitely use some more furniture, especially seating. As for the location, I think the owners spell it out pretty clearly in their ad. This is not exactly an up and coming neighborhood but at no time did we ever feel unsafe. But, if you’re easily freaked out, maybe keep searching. It IS an easy drive to downtown Durham though. Overall, we would stay here again!

The property was great—easy to access in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown. The hosts were very accommodating, anticipating needs before any questions presented themselves. Arriving on a cold night, the heater was already set to a warm temp, which was really appreciated and thoughtful.
