Property Description
Carefully restored by its current owners, 711 Parker is a historical gem in an ideal location. Originally built in the 1890s, this gorgeous 4 bedroom, 2 bath home is full of amazing period detail and fully updated to modern standards. Since 2018, the sellers have entirely replaced the roof, wiring, plumbing, and water heater, as well as repaired the foundation, and installed a new HVAC system. They replaced the piers and flooring on the wrap around porch and repaired the tapered porch posts, and they added a new deck to the back of the house. All work was permitted. This amazing home embodies the history of Durham's early growth, particularly the building patterns in the Morehead Hill Historic District (see documents for full details about the historical significance). The main floor has oak hardwoods, 10-foot ceilings, plaster walls, 3 fireplaces (2 with original tile and 2 with original cast iron fireplace covers), a spacious living and dining room, a bedroom/office, as well as an updated kitchen and bath. On the second level, there are 9-foot ceilings, stunning old growth heart pine flooring, 3 bedrooms (two of which feature fireplaces and the other is an expansive primary), and another full bath. Within five minutes of Downtown Durham, DPAC, the Durham Bulls Athletic Park and Duke University. 3 blocks from the American Tobacco trailhead. Zoned for Morehead Montessori. Part of the Morehead Hill Historic District.
