1010 Green Street

Step into the perfect blend of modern luxury and timeless charm at 1010 Green Street in Durham's beloved Trinity Park. This stunning brick foursquare, originally built in 1928 by T.H. Lawrence using treasures from Julian Carr's grand Somerset Villa, is rich with history and character. Picture yourself relaxing in a rocking chair on the spacious, inviting front porch. Inside, original details like 9-foot doors and soaring ceilings capture the elegance of a bygone era.
Fast forward to today, and you'll find a home that's been thoughtfully updated for contemporary living. A 2016 addition brought in an expanded pantry, extra storage, a serene owner's suite with vibrant tilework and a spa-like bath, and a cozy screened porch that overlooks your private, fenced backyard oasis. Then, in 2022, the home received a full renovation, transforming the kitchen into a chef's dream. Custom wood cabinetry, a 6-burner Thermador gas range, and a built-in refrigerator are just the beginning. The luxurious touches continue with modern lighting throughout, complemented by gorgeous pine and oak floors.
Upstairs, the guest bath is a showstopper, featuring marble floors, a new tub, and stunning tile work. The updates don't stop there—new energy-efficient windows, a 2021 architectural shingle roof on the main house, and a charming tin roof over the porch ensure this home is as practical as it is beautiful. And there's plenty of room for storage in the basement.
All this, and you're just a short stroll from Downtown Durham, with Duke University, Duke Hospital, and the enchanting Sarah P. Duke Gardens just minutes away. This home truly has it all—history, elegance, and modern convenience—waiting for you to make it your own!
