About this property

Artfully Restored Downtown Victorian

Summary:
INCREDIBLE 2024 restoration from one of Durham's premier historic home renovation companies, Pier & Curtain Home Restoration. With exacting attention to detail and an ethos for historic preservation, this home was not only renovated but curated to pamper your friends and family while visiting Durham. This remarkable home balances modern form and function with an elegance that transports you back in time. The circa 1902 Clayton Bronson House boasts historic features at every turn; FIVE original corner fireplaces with original mantles and cast iron surrounds, Original heart pine floors (and salvaged heart pine in the addition), original and salvaged historic doors, banister, trim & moldings! Enormous picture windows from the turn of the century— you can't replicate this wavy glass. STUNNING custom Victorian details including wraparound porch, decorative brackets, gable decor & architectural window eyebrows, all spotlighted with architectural landscape lighting. Modern layout opens the space to wonderful light & flow while maintaining the historic feel. Showstopper kitchen with elevated backsplash feature wall & custom hood above a 36'' gas range, gorgeous bridge faucets, bonus prep sink, appliance garage & custom shelving. THREE, count them, THREE bedroom en-suites including a primary on the main level. Luxe baths in all suites, ADORABLE powder room, picture frame trim throughout the house; the list is endless!! Completely new systems (plumbing, HVAC and electrical) bridge this wonderful historic home into the 21st century. Private backyard, terraced deck with seating and dusk to dawn lighting. Circular drive for ease of parking and access. Steps from EVERYTHING downtown has to offer!

The Space:
Three bedrooms all with bathrooms en suite, plus one half bath on the main floor. Spacious kitchen/living/dining area with true chef's kitchen featuring 36" Italian gas range, dual sinks, and appliance garage. Beautiful wraparound porch. Private back deck with outdoor dining space.

Guest Access:
The entire house and yard is yours to use and explore!

The Neighborhood:
From your steps, it is 1/2 mile (10 minute walk) to much of the best that Downtown Durham has to offer, including LouElla Wine Bar, Cocoa Cinnamon Coffee, Fullsteam Brewery, Motorco music venue and Bar. You'll travel along tree lined streets past historic homes on your way. It's an easy trip to the Saturday morning farmers market, Durham Art walks, the Carolina Theater, and many, many exceptional restaurants and unique bars. Upon Booking, we will share an expansive and comprehensive list of all of our Favorites!

Getting Around:
There are many bus lines that should take you very near our house; We're centrally located; by car, we're approximately 3 minutes from I-85 or NC-147, or an easy walk / Lyft / Uber ride downtown.

Other Things to Note:
We have a Smart TV with access to Netflix, your Amazon or Hulu account, and many other apps. We Cut the Cord on Cable, but offer YouTubeTV which functions similar to Cable and offers tons of Live or On Demand Options!

Interaction with Guests:
We want you to be able to settle into this home as if it was your own. We'll stay out of your way, but we're just a quick message away if you have questions about restaurants, events or the house, or if an unexpected issue arises.

We are happy to answer questions that you may have! Whether it's a hankering for a local cider, a sudden urge for a new haircut or a desperate need for a donut, we are happy to help you find the closest and best place to make that happen.

Great stay in Durham

This was a great stay in Durham. The house is as advertised in pictures, very clean, and in a great location. We were 3 couples and was a perfect set up for our group with every bedroom having an en suite bathroom. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. The host is very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend!

What a jewel

We're from Durham and came together to visit our mother for her 101st birthday. She grew up on Englewood Avenue in a home very much like this one. So that really struck a chord for us all. The home has been renovated with such care. Plenty of room. Lovely kitchen. beautiful bathrooms. Can't say enough. Would definitely stay there again should we need that much space.
