OPEN 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
