About this home
A piece of Durham history, reimagined for the way we live today. This distinctive Italianate Colonial was once home to Dr. Ernest Markham, Durham's first physician, who also practiced here. Today, that history creates something especially valuable: flexibility. Nearly 3,000 square feet offers five bedrooms, two full baths, soaring ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, bay windows, period details and a fieldstone gas fireplace. Gracious rooms, abundant natural light and tall windows reflect the character of another era, while thoughtful improvements bring modern-day comfort. The former doctor's office has its own entrance, enclosed porch, office/sitting room and second kitchen, creating possibilities for a home office, extended living, hobbies and more. A standout improvement is 100% owned solar, with recent Eversource electric bills at $0. Other significant updates include a newer septic system, driveway and fencing. Outside, beautifully landscaped grounds surround a peaceful backyard with wonderful sunset views and plenty of room to relax, garden or gather. Best of all, enjoy a true in-town Durham location where you can walk to the library, Allyn Brook Park, Dari Serv and more. A home with a story, a setting and spaces that can evolve right along with you....
