Agent Description

Welcome to a Downtown Durham oasis - the house, the garden and the location makes 506 Mallard a hidden secret worth checking out. The blooming jasmine on the front porch might slow your step into 506 Mallard Avenue, but once you're inside this craftsman bungalow the first thing you'll notice is the historic charm.

Soaring 10' beadboard ceilings, old heart pine floors, and a grand living space greets you upon entry. Thoughtfully updated in 2012, the character is all there and the big-ticket concerns are not - metal roof, newer windows and HVAC, updated bathrooms and kitchen, spacious bedrooms, great storage.

The inviting updated kitchen will have you never wanting to leave as you cook, host, and entertain all your friends. You'll inevitably spill out onto the large entertaining deck and garden space - it's private, quiet, filled with birdsong, and thoughtfully planted for a full experience.

Enjoy a private firepit, swing on the box elder swing, plant your veggies, and plant a table on the deck or designated space to have those great outdoor parties. Fully fenced for you furry friends and a private parking space behind the privacy gate. Durham is a vibe and you're in the middle of it.

Cleveland Holloway is lined with historic homes, tree lined streets and is only steps away from downtown. It's the best of both worlds! Downtown living, but a retreat that's so private you'll forget about the hustle and bustle of the Bull City. 506 Mallard is exceptional and ready for its next steward.
