A rare and truly unique Durham property offering space, privacy and possibilities that are increasingly hard to find. Sitting high on a hill, this classic ranch is offered with two adjoining parcels totaling 8.79 acres, a detached 3-car garage, heated workshop, wired sheds and no HOA. Inside, the split-bedroom floor plan gives each of the three bedrooms its own private full bathroom. The home also features hardwood floors, high ceilings, a bright sunroom, spacious kitchen and an abundance of natural light from 11 newly replaced VELUX skylights. Since 2022, the sellers have invested nearly $70,000 in repairs and improvements, including updated PEX plumbing, two new water heaters, a new well pressure tank, whole-house water filtration, reverse-osmosis drinking water, interior paint, electrical updates, siding repairs, and extensive grading and drainage work. The grounds feature mature fruit trees, native plants and a meadow managed as a certified NC wildlife habitat. The adjoining 3.18-acre parcel at 4412 Rogers Road is included and may offer the possibility of an additional homesite or future subdivision. Buyers should contact Durham City-County Planning and Durham County Environmental Health to verify zoning, access, soil suitability, septic requirements and development potential. Both parcels are being sold together.
