OPEN HOUSE! BEAUTIFUL FAIRCHILD HOUSE!

The Robert Fairchild House, circa 1730, is located in the heart of
Durham. As you step inside, authentic features abound, such as chestnut
floors, wainscoting, raised paneling, detailed molding and iron door hardware.
The 2,800 sq ft home has 4 fireplaces and has been carefully renovated
by a renowned interior designer to seamlessly blend historic character
with todays amenities. The first floor consists of spacious living,
dining & keeping rooms. The renovated, eat-in kitchen includes
granite countertops & stainless
appliances. Rounding out the first floor are a library/ den, utility
room, pantry, half bath & a light-filled sun... porch overlooking
the property. The second floor
houses a master bedroom suit with dressing room. Two additional
well-sized bedrooms & full bath complete the second floor. The
walk-up attic, currently unfinished, offers abundant storage or possible
expansion. The home has been updated with newer mechanicals and cedar
shake roof. The home is situated on over 1.5 acres, and includes a two
car detached garage with loft. The level back yard, which is
surprisingly private, includes mature trees & a brook.
