Classic, Custom-Built Two-Story Colonial Was Builder’s Own Personal Home





I am excited about my new listing at 5124 Stephens Lane in Durham, which will be coming on the market this Saturday, July 24, when I will host an Open House from 2-4 p.m. This 1967 classic, custom-built, two-story Colonial was a builder’s own personal home. 


Straddling the North Durham neighborhoods of Stephens Woods & Oakdale, this home features five bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, 2,485 sq.ft., a 2-car garage, and has a 2.4-acre lot with a fenced backyard. The asking price of the house is $264,900. Recent updates include new vinyl & carpet floor coverings throughout the home; freshly-painted interior walls; and quality Sherwin Williams exterior paint that comes with a 25-year warranty. 


This home has a new roof with 35-year architectural shingles that have a 15-year mold-resistance warranty; new gutters & downspouts; and decking that was built with tongue-and-groove boards. All 33 of the windows have been replaced with PlyGem, low-energy vinyl windows. The house has two new locking storm doors with glass and screens; and two new garage doors with new electric garage-door openers. There is a new porch room on the back that has recently been sided with new hardiplank siding and there is new gravel in the driveway and parking areas. Although city water and sewage are available, the well is 410 ft. deep and has never run low on water.
