314 W Trinity Avenue

A Durham NC classic from 1929. This English style home typifies the era of the charming American residential homes in the 1920s. The plan for this home is available in 101 Classic Homes of the Twenties: Floor Plans and Photographs by Harris McHenry & Baker Co. (Author). Perched on a terraced hill above the street, only 1 block from Geer St. Retaining much of the original elegance - quarter sawn white oak flooring, doors/w glass door knobs, fixtures & windows are extraordinary and the dual fireplaces define the style. The 2-car garage easily converts to an ADU. A private back yard is ready for patio & garden additions with ample space for the house structure to be expanded for more square footage. Space on the first floor allows the addition of an en suite. The large basement will accommodate a workshop & other functions. Sunsets are spectacular above the expanding Durham skyline, as this house enjoys a south-west exposure. Please note: the house requires updating and repairs; a creative renovation will return this home's original charm, thereby complimenting this modern and sophisticated Durham neighborhood.
