Lakewood Mid-Century Ranch | One-Level Living | Two Fireplaces | Huge Private Patio | Wooded 0.36-Acre Lot Come see one of Lakewood's distinctive mid-century ranches—the house on the hill with the red metal roof. Set on a beautifully wooded 0.36-acre lot with a fenced backyard, this exceptionally well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the rare combination of one-level living, character, privacy, and a terrific Durham location. Located on a private dead-end street with no HOA. Inside, you'll find an updated kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances, hard-surface flooring throughout, and two wood-burning fireplaces that add warmth and personality to the living spaces. The comfortable single-level layout makes everyday living easy while retaining the charm and character of its 1958 origins. The kitchen and backyard are where this home truly shine. Step outside to the extra-large private patio, approximately 17' × 39'—an impressive 663 square feet of outdoor living space. Surrounded by mature trees, the patio and wooded backyard create a peaceful setting for dinner parties, weekend gatherings, grilling, morning coffee, or simply enjoying the outdoors. The fenced backyard provides even more room for family and pets to relax, play, and garden. And then there's the location. Enjoy easy access to neighborhood favorites including Nana's, Foster's Market, and Rockwood Park, as well as Forest Hills Park, downtown Durham, DPAC, and Durham Bulls Athletic Park. With its mature trees, two fireplaces, generous private patio, fenced backyard, updated kitchen, one-level living, and highly desirable location, this is much more than another three-bedroom ranch. It's a home with personality—a private retreat where you can enjoy the best of Durham right outside your door.
