About 909 N Gregson St

Sometimes the word ''renovation'' isn't descriptive enough; this is a transformation! The restoration of 909 N Gregson was a true labor of love, rescuing a neglected neighborhood gem from certain teardown. This stunning home is situated in the heart of the highly sought-after Trinity Park, only a few tree-lined blocks from Duke University, Whole Foods, Ninth Street shops and restaurants, and the Durham Bulls baseball stadium. A wide bluestone entry welcomes you into the gracious foyer, which offers site-finished hardwood floors and flowing into the elegant living spaces detailed with custom trim, marble fireplaces, and coffered ceilings. The broad cased opening conceals hidden storage while creating an elegant transition to the designer chef's kitchen, expansive pantry, and dining area. The floor plan allows for easy circulation out onto the stunning veranda and landscaped backyard, perfect for hosting and relaxing. In addition, the first floor also includes a large private guest suite with an ensuite bath featuring a tiled shower, as well as a first-floor laundry and a bonus space perfect for crafting or an office. All of the generous bedrooms in this home are complemented by ensuite bathrooms, yet the primary suite overlooking the gorgeous backyard is a true ''WOW'' moment. Listen to the birds while enjoying the treetop views. Yours and mine bespoke closets allow for private dressing spaces, one offering a lovely marble vanity and gorgeous natural light. The primary bath ensemble is a true showstopper, with designer fixtures, tiles, vanities, and a spa-like shower you won't want to leave. The third floor takes the home to new heights. The multi-floor wainscoting and wide landing invite you to comfortable and flexible areas that can be used for a variety of interests and activities. The third floor includes a kitchenette and a full bathroom with a walk-in shower, adding to the versatility of such a comfortable layout. All systems are brand new: plumbing, electrical, HVAC, windows, doors, roofing, insulation, and so much more—this is a new home in a historic shell. Without a doubt, you will feel the warmth, energy, and attention to detail that went into resurrecting this beauty. 909 N Gregson offers you a chance to own history, to be a part of a charming neighborhood, and to enjoy modern luxury.
